Topawa, AZ population, income and ZIP codes

Topawa CDP is a very small community in Arizona, with 358 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #312 of 467 ranked by population — larger than 33% of them. The median age here is 26 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 Topawa CDP earn a median of $35,625 a year, 54.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 44% 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 41.1% 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 Topawa CDP is valued at $106,300, 65% below the national figure and 56% below the $242,700 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 34.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

A median age of 26 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. With 358 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Topawa CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Topawa 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.
