Turtle Lake village, WI in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Turtle Lake village is a very small community in Wisconsin, with 900 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #414 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 48% of them. The median age here is 42.2 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 Turtle Lake village earn a median of $57,854 a year, 26.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 22% 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 8.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Turtle Lake village is valued at $143,100, 52.8% below the national figure and 32% below the $211,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $794 a month, 43.5% below the national figure, or roughly $9,528 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.5% 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 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 52.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
