Dunn County, WI

Menomonie, Wisconsin has about 16,539 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.

A typical home is worth about $220,800.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Dunn County is $1,042 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Menomonie. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

Wisconsin's prices sit at 94.1 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.

Wisconsin taxes wages. A typical combined sales tax is 5.7% as of January 1, 2026. That mix is statewide, not Menomonie's exact store tax.

In July 2026, a typical Wisconsin home paid 19.06¢ per kilowatt-hour. That is a state average from EIA, not Menomonie's bill.

EIA did not publish a 2025 all-grades gas price for Wisconsin in the table we use.
