Mokelumne Hill, CA population, income and ZIP codes

Mokelumne Hill CDP is a small town in California, with 1,049 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1042 of 1,618 ranked by population — larger than 35% of them. The median age here is 47.8 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 Mokelumne Hill CDP earn a median of $86,480 a year, 10.1% above the national figure of $78,538 and 5% below the $91,111 median for the 1,050 California 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 0% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Mokelumne Hill CDP is valued at $365,700, 20.5% above the national figure and 38% below the $589,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,056 a month, 46.2% above the national figure, or roughly $24,672 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 28.5% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 77.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

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.
