Lake County, CA

Upper Lake, California has about 1,374 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.

A typical home is worth about $361,800.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Lake County is $1,616 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Upper Lake. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

California's prices sit at 110.7 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.

California taxes wages. A typical combined sales tax is 9.0% as of January 1, 2026. That mix is statewide, not Upper Lake's exact store tax.

In July 2026, a typical California home paid 33.61¢ per kilowatt-hour. That is a state average from EIA, not Upper Lake's bill.

In 2025, all-grades gas in California averaged $4.53 a gallon. EIA prints this yearly price for only some states.
