A typical home is worth about $321,300.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Sauk County is $1,168 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Prairie du Sac. 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.
