Goodyear city, AZ in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Goodyear city is a mid-size city in Arizona, with 102,891 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #12 of 467 ranked by population — larger than 97% of them. The median age here is 40.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this size the Census also publishes one-year estimates; the five-year values used here are steadier and let you compare against smaller neighbours on the same basis.
Households in Goodyear city earn a median of $101,814 a year, 29.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 60% above the $63,545 median for the 206 Arizona cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 5.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Goodyear city is valued at $441,900, 45.6% above the national figure and 82% above the $242,700 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,848 a month, 31.4% above the national figure, or roughly $22,176 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.8% 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 4.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 78% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.
