How Suamico compares. Among the 80 largest places in Wisconsin, Suamico is #72 by population, #2 for homeownership (#1 = highest), #9 for household income (#1 = highest), #15 for remote work (#1 = most). Its county, Brown County, is #6 of 72 counties for average pay ($63,349).
Suamico has 12,985 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 0.2% of the population of Wisconsin. It covers 36 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 357 people per square mile. The median age is 41.8, 4% older than the state median (41.8 against 40.2).
The median gross rent is $1,188 a month (rent plus utilities), 9% above the state median ($1,188 against $1,087). Over a year that is 12.0% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $366,900, which is 3.1 times the median household income ($118,337); a ratio under 4 usually means ownership is within reach for many households. 89.4% of households own their home, 32% above the state average (89.4% against 67.8%).
The Green Bay, WI metropolitan area has 174,550 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $49,940 a year, about the same as the national median ($49,940 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are production (21,370 jobs, median $48,010); office and administrative support (20,020 jobs, median $47,440); transportation and material moving (16,750 jobs, median $46,170). The area is most specialised in production (2.2 times) and healthcare practitioners and technical (1.1 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($122,020) and healthcare practitioners and technical ($84,400). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of Brown County was 2.6%. 68.0% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in Brown County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.
Among workers, 75.5% drive alone, 0.0% use public transit, 0.1% walk, 19.1% work from home. 6.2% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 39% below the state average (6.2% against 10.2%). Remote work is more common than in the state as a whole, which widens the set of employers a resident can work for without moving.
45.6% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 37% above the state share (45.6% against 33.4%). 1.1% of residents were born outside the United States, 79% below the state share (1.1% against 5.2%). The poverty rate is 2.5%, 76% below the state rate (2.5% against 10.6%).
The warmest month is Jul, averaging 71°F (21.6°C), and the coolest is Jan at 18°F (-8.0°C). About 878 mm (35 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Jun is the wettest month (113 mm) and Jan the driest (34 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.
