Since 2017, there has been a gradual decline in median income, dropping to $110,376 in 2022. This decline correlates with a slight decrease in the white population percentage and a small increase in Hispanic residents.
The population has fluctuated between 178 and 256 residents over the decade, with no clear trend. The current population of 231 in 2022 is close to the 2013 level of 240, suggesting a relatively stable community size despite income variations.
Genoa's median income, even at its recent lower levels, remains significantly above the national median income, indicating a persistently affluent community. The area's lack of racial diversity contrasts with national trends towards increasing diversity in many communities across the United States. The slight increase in Hispanic population, while small, aligns with broader national trends of growing Hispanic populations in many areas of the country.
Genoa represents a small, affluent, predominantly white community that has maintained its demographic character over the past decade, with only minor shifts towards slightly increased diversity. While the area has experienced some economic fluctuations, it remains a high-income locality. The subtle changes observed may indicate the very early stages of a transition towards greater diversity, but this process, if occurring, is happening at a much slower pace than in many other parts of the country.
