California Polytechnic State University, CA population, income and ZIP codes

California Polytechnic State University CDP is a mid-size town in California, with 7,529 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #554 of 1,618 ranked by population — larger than 65% of them. The median age here is 19.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in California Polytechnic State University CDP earn a median of not published a year. 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 10.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in California Polytechnic State University CDP is valued at $518,800, 71% above the national figure and 12% below the $589,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 61.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.

A median age of 19.2 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 household income, gross rent for California Polytechnic State University 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.
