Marana town, AZ in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Marana town is a small city in Arizona, with 54,487 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #22 of 467 ranked by population — larger than 95% of them. The median age here is 41.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Marana town earn a median of $108,256 a year, 37.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 70% above the $63,545 median for the 206 Arizona cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 5.4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Marana town is valued at $380,100, 25.3% above the national figure and 57% above the $242,700 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,702 a month, 21.1% above the national figure, or roughly $20,424 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.9% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 83.3% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
