Shongopovi, AZ population, income and ZIP codes

Shongopovi CDP is a small town in Arizona, with 1,131 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #199 of 467 ranked by population — larger than 57% of them. The median age here is 26.4 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 Shongopovi CDP earn a median of $32,708 a year, 58.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 49% below 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 47.9% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Shongopovi CDP is valued at $76,200, 74.9% below the national figure and 69% below the $242,700 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.3×, 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. 67.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

A median age of 26.4 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address.

The Census withheld gross rent for Shongopovi CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
