Housing, property taxes, employment, healthcare access and other regional characteristics can add useful context to the picture of life in Spring Mill.

Current NarrowTheList data for Spring Mill shows a population of about 389. These local figures become more useful when read together with county-level tax, housing, foreclosure and demographic conditions rather than treated as isolated city statistics.
