Red Lake CDP, AZ in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Red Lake CDP is a small town in Arizona, with 1,764 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #163 of 467 ranked by population — larger than 65% of them. The median age here is 43.5 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 Red Lake CDP earn a median of $86,125 a year, 9.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 36% 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% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Red Lake CDP is valued at $299,300, 1.4% below the national figure and 23% above the $242,700 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,281 a month, 8.9% below the national figure, or roughly $15,372 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.8% 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. 82.6% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
