Population Migration Trends
Total population change is a combination of births, deaths,
and the net migration of those arriving in and leaving the
state. The result of births minus deaths is termed the “natural
increase.” As calculated from data shown in Table II.81.3, the
2018 population estimates showed a natural decrease of 112
persons since 2010. Between 2010 and 2018, Sheridan
County’s population decreased from 5,469 in 2010 to 5,190
in 2018, or by 5.1 percent.
The Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT) collects
data on drivers who move to Nebraska and exchange licenses
from other states as well as those surrendering Nebraska
driver’s licenses when relocating to a different state. The
NDOT data does not represent a precise count of migration,
as they show only the net change in the number of driver’s
licenses, but the data indicate the general direction of population movement.
As can be seen in Table II.81.4, the most recent first half of 2019 data saw a total net out-migration
of 17 persons, with a total of 70 persons entering Sheridan County and 87 persons leaving Sheridan
County.

Table II.81.7 shows migration data for Sheridan County between 2012 and 2018. This data comes
from the IRS, which tracks address changes between filing years. As a result, this dataset might
underrepresent low-income people who are less likely to file taxes. This dataset also excludes tax
returns filed after late September. Taxpayers who file after late September are likely to have
complex returns that report high income, which means this dataset will also underreport the very
wealthy.
According to the IRS, Sheridan County saw a net in migration of 63 persons in 2018, unfortunately
there was insufficient data to calculate migration trends for 2017.

Census Demographic Data
In the 1980, 1990, and 2000 decennial censuses, the Census Bureau released several tabulations in
addition to the full SF1 100 percent count data including the one-in-six SF3 sample. These
additional samples, such as the SF3, asked supplementary questions regarding income and
household attributes that were not asked in the 100 percent count. In the 2010 decennial census,
the Census Bureau did not collect additional sample data, such as the SF3, and thus many
important housing and income concepts are not available in the 2010 Census.
To study these important concepts the Census Bureau distributes the American Community Survey
every year to a sample of the population and quantifies the results as one-, three- and five-year
averages. The one-year sample only includes responses from the year the survey was implemented,
while the five-year sample includes responses over a five-year period. Since the five-year estimates
include more responses, the estimates can be tabulated down to the Census tract level, and
considered more robust than the one or three year sample estimates.

Poverty
Poverty is the condition of having insufficient resources or
income. In its extreme form, poverty is a lack of basic human
needs, such as adequate and healthy food, clothing, housing,
water, and health services. According to the Census Bureau’s
Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates Program, the number
of individuals in poverty decreased from 919 in 2010 to 834 in
2018, with the poverty rate reaching 16.5 percent in 2018. This
compared to a state poverty rate of 11 percent and a national
rate of 13.1 percent in 2018. Table II.81.34 presents poverty
data for the county. Diagram II.81.11 displays the SAIPE
estimated poverty rates for Sheridan County compared to the
State of Nebraska from 2000 to 2018.
To compare the poverty rate against more recent data, Table
II.81.35 shows poverty by age from the 2010 and 2018 Five-
Year ACS data. As can be seen, the 2010 Five-Year ACS had a
poverty rate of 16.5 percent versus 18 percent in the most
recent 2018 data.

Hence, these property transactions are seen even though a single-family new construction permit was probably not issued for the
manufactured home. 2 Price per sq. ft. may not compute precisely due to rounding-off of sales price and floor area.

Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS)
The following table set shows Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) data. If a data
point is not available or is missing, a “.” or “%” will be present in its place.
Housing Problems by Income, Race, and Tenure
Table II.81.54 through Table II.81.59 show households with housing problems by race/ethnicity.
These tables can be used to determine if there is a disproportionate housing need for any racial or
ethnic groups. If any racial/ethnic group faces housing problems at a rate of ten percentage points
or higher than the jurisdiction average, then they have a disproportionate share of housing
problems. Housing problems are defined as any household that has overcrowding, inadequate
kitchen or plumbing facilities, or are cost burdened (pay more than 30 percent of their income on
housing). In Sheridan County, housing problems are faced by 249 White homeowner households,
0 Black homeowner households, 0 Asian homeowner households, and 0 Hispanic homeowner
households.

Cost Burdens
For owner occupied housing, elderly non-family households are most likely to be impacted by
housing cost burdens, with 24.6 percent of these households having a cost burden or severe cost
burden. For lower income owner households, elderly non-family households and large families are
most likely to experience cost burdens. Some 62.5 percent of elderly non-family and 100 percent of
large family households below 30 percent HAMFI face cost burdens or severe cost burdens. These
data are shown in Table II.81.66
Table II.81.67 displays cost burden in renter-occupied households by family status and income.
Renter households tend to be impacted at a higher rate by cost burdens than owner households.
Some 71 renter occupied households faced cost burdens, compared to 170 owner occupied
households. Of these, there are 8 renter households with incomes less than 30 percent HAMFI
facing housing problems.

Lead-Based Paint Risks
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), older homes are more likely to contain
lead-based paint, which is one of the most common causes of lead poisoning. A home built
between 1960 and 1977 has a 24 percent chance of containing lead-based paint, while a home
built from 1940 to 1959 has a 69 percent chance of containing lead-based paint. Homes built
before 1940 have the highest rate of lead-based paint at 87 percent3.
Table II.81.69 shows the risk of lead-based paint for households with young children present. As
seen therein, there are an estimated 132 households built between 1940 and 1979 with young
children present, and 56 built prior to 1939.

2019 from 7 in 2018. Between 2018 and 2019
the vacancy rate for all units decreased by 3.1
percentage points and was at 7.8 percent in
2019.
Table II.81.75 shows the amount of total and
vacant units with their associated vacancy
rates. At the time of the survey, there were an
estimated 3 single family units in Sheridan
County, with 0 of them available. This
translates into a vacancy rate of 0 percent in
Sheridan County, which compares to a single
family vacancy rate of 4.4 percent for the State of Nebraska. There were 74 apartment units
reported in the survey, with 6 of them available, which resulted in a vacancy rate of 8.1 percent.
