Ideal CDP, South Dakota: commercial real estate data.

Ideal CDP is a Census CDP of 40 people across 0.51 square miles of land, in Tripp County. 43.8 percent of occupied homes are owned.

46 sourced place values · tier FULL · 6 sections · underlined figures are computed by MMCG Analytics, not published by the agency

This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.

The American Community Survey reaches Ideal through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 40 with a margin of error of plus or minus 39, which is 97.5 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.

Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Tripp County, not Ideal

Tripp County context, not Ideal figures

These are Tripp County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Ideal measurements.

  • Establishments in Tripp County200
  • Employment at those establishments, Tripp County1,513
  • Covered employment, Tripp County2,331
  • Average annual pay, Tripp County$49,583
  • Average weekly wage, Tripp County$954
  • Housing units permitted, Tripp County10
  • Of those, single family, Tripp County0
  • County product, 2024, Tripp County$353,206,000
  • County product change over the prior year, Tripp County-0.7 percent
  • Average income of an arriving household, Tripp County$39,820

Every figure in this section is published for Tripp County as a whole and is not a measurement of Ideal. It is here because a county backdrop is what a credit committee reads a place against, and it is labelled so that it can never be quoted as the place's own.

Coverage

What this page does not hold.

Every item below could be filled with a plausible figure. None of them is. On a page a lender may read, a number that cannot be traced is worse than an absence, so the absences are named.

  • No SBA approvals are recorded to a borrower address in this place in either FOIA release.
  • This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
  • The American Community Survey does not publish a median household income for this place, which happens where the sample is too small to support one.
  • No median owner-occupied home value is published for this place.
  • No median gross rent is published for this place.
  • Parcel level detail, zoning and flood zone at an address are resolved in the platform, not on this page.

SBA figures count approvals to borrowers whose address is in the place. They are not approvals for projects inside the place boundary: the tape records a borrower city and a project county, and those can differ.

Common questions

Ideal questions, answered from the record.

How many people live in Ideal, South Dakota?

40, in 16 households. Ideal CDP covers 0.51 square miles of land, which is 78 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

What county is Ideal in?

Tripp County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.

Are the county figures on this page Ideal figures?

No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Tripp County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Ideal.

Is zoning published for Ideal?

Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
