Edgerton, WY population, income and ZIP codes

Edgerton town is a very small community in Wyoming, with 78 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #159 of 205 ranked by population — larger than 22% of them. The median age here is 39.2 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 Edgerton town earn a median of $26,406 a year, 66.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 62% below the $69,912 median for the 54 Wyoming cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 26.9% 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 Edgerton town is valued at $26,300, 91.3% below the national figure and 90% below the $251,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $531 a month, 62.2% below the national figure, or roughly $6,372 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.1% 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 1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 46.2% 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.

With 78 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Edgerton town against its county rather than against national figures.
