Whitecone, AZ population, income and ZIP codes

Whitecone CDP is a very small community in Arizona, with 942 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #215 of 467 ranked by population — larger than 54% of them. The median age here is 33.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Whitecone CDP earn a median of $28,500 a year, 63.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 55% below the $63,545 median for the 206 Arizona cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 58% 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 Whitecone CDP is valued at $130,900, 56.9% below the national figure and 46% below the $242,700 peer median, while median gross rent runs $842 a month, 40.1% below the national figure, or roughly $10,104 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 35.5% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 69.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

With 942 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Whitecone CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

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.
