White Lake, WI population, income and ZIP codes

White Lake village is a very small community in Wisconsin, with 204 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #690 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 14% of them. The median age here is 56 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 White Lake village earn a median of $41,875 a year, 46.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 43% below the $73,880 median for the 395 Wisconsin cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 24% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in White Lake village is valued at $133,800, 55.9% below the national figure and 37% below the $211,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $704 a month, 49.9% below the national figure, or roughly $8,448 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.2% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 65.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

A median age of 56 puts White Lake village well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 204 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare White Lake village against its county rather than against national figures.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
