Keams Canyon, AZ population, income and ZIP codes

Keams Canyon CDP is a very small community in Arizona, with 460 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #287 of 467 ranked by population — larger than 38% of them. The median age here is 31.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Keams Canyon CDP earn a median of $61,413 a year, 21.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 3% below the $63,545 median for the 206 Arizona 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 13.3% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Keams Canyon CDP is valued at $77,100, 74.6% below the national figure and 68% below the $242,700 peer median, while median gross rent runs $677 a month, 51.8% below the national figure, or roughly $8,124 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.2% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 25.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. 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.
