Lockwood (Amador Co.), CA population, income and ZIP codes

Lockwood CDP (Amador County) is a very small community in California, with 487 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1227 of 1,618 ranked by population — larger than 24% of them. The median age here is 58.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Lockwood CDP (Amador County) earn a median of $182,550 a year, 132.4% above the national figure of $78,538 and 100% above the $91,111 median for the 1,050 California cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 4.5% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Lockwood CDP (Amador County) is valued at $500,000, 64.8% above the national figure and 15% below the $589,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 94.9% 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. 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 58.9 puts Lockwood CDP (Amador County) well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 487 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Lockwood CDP (Amador County) against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Lockwood CDP (Amador County) 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.
