Cost of living in Grant, Nebraska

Grant, Nebraska has about 1,413 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.

A typical home is worth about $154,600.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Perkins County is $1,014 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Grant. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

Nebraska's prices sit at 90.1 when the U.S. average is 100. This place is not in a metro area with its own index, so this is the state number from BEA for 2024.

Nebraska taxes wages. A typical combined sales tax is 7.0% as of January 1, 2026. That mix is statewide, not Grant's exact store tax.

In July 2026, a typical Nebraska home paid 13.78¢ per kilowatt-hour. That is a state average from EIA, not Grant's bill.

EIA does not publish a Nebraska gasoline price. For the week of October 12, 2026, the Midwest (PADD 2) all-grades price was $4.237 a gallon. At 12,000 miles a year and 25 mpg, the index counts that as $2,033.76 a year. Those miles are our standard, not a Census figure, and every town in Nebraska shares this price.
