Pewaukee village, WI in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Pewaukee village is a mid-size town in Wisconsin, with 8,240 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #117 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 85% of them. The median age here is 45.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Pewaukee village earn a median of $62,380 a year, 20.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 16% below the $73,880 median for the 395 Wisconsin cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 8.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Pewaukee village is valued at $266,300, 12.2% below the national figure and 26% above the $211,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,281 a month, 8.9% below the national figure, or roughly $15,372 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.6% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 59.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
