Diamond Ridge, AK population, income and ZIP codes

Diamond Ridge CDP is a small town in Alaska, with 1,338 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #62 of 355 ranked by population — larger than 82% of them. The median age here is 40.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in Diamond Ridge CDP earn a median of $80,417 a year, 2.4% above the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of the $81,250 median for the 73 Alaska cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 4.1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Diamond Ridge CDP is valued at $312,200, 2.9% above the national figure and within a couple of points of the $305,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,500 a month, 6.7% above the national figure, or roughly $18,000 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 93.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
