Census figures put the median Mankato home at about 45 years old, built around 1981. There are roughly 19,186 housing units here with a median value near $250,600.

How is the Mankato cost index calculated?
We scale the labor share of a national baseline cost by how Mankato's average wage compares to the national average (index 0.76, using U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics QCEW data), so local labor tracks local wages while materials stay national.
