Queen Creek, AZ population, income and ZIP codes

Queen Creek town is a small city in Arizona, with 66,369 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #18 of 467 ranked by population — larger than 96% of them. The median age here is 37.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Queen Creek town earn a median of $134,719 a year, 71.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 112% 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 3.6% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Queen Creek town is valued at $576,600, 90% above the national figure and 138% above the $242,700 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,176 a month, 54.8% above the national figure, or roughly $26,112 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.4% 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 4.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 90.9% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
