Alhambra Valley, CA population, income and ZIP codes

Alhambra Valley CDP is a very small community in California, with 937 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1076 of 1,618 ranked by population — larger than 33% of them. The median age here is 44.4 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 Alhambra Valley CDP earn a median of $202,024 a year, 157.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 122% above the $91,111 median for the 1,050 California cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 20.8% 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 Alhambra Valley CDP is valued at $1,190,700, 292.5% above the national figure and 102% above the $589,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 91.8% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

Median income runs above the national figure while poverty also runs above it — a split distribution, not a uniformly comfortable place. Averages hide that; the two numbers together do not. With 937 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Alhambra Valley CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Alhambra Valley 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.
