St. Croix Falls city, WI in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

St. Croix Falls city is a small town in Wisconsin, with 2,469 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #249 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 69% of them. The median age here is 41.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in St. Croix Falls city earn a median of $63,179 a year, 19.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 14% below the $73,880 median for the 395 Wisconsin cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in St. Croix Falls city is valued at $216,500, 28.6% below the national figure and within a couple of points of the $211,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $864 a month, 38.5% below the national figure, or roughly $10,368 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 59.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
