Mono Vista, CA population, income and ZIP codes

Mono Vista CDP is a small town in California, with 3,696 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #735 of 1,618 ranked by population — larger than 54% of them. The median age here is 43.9 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 Mono Vista CDP earn a median of $70,353 a year, 10.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 23% below the $91,111 median for the 1,050 California 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 8.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Mono Vista CDP is valued at $401,800, 32.4% above the national figure and 32% below the $589,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,859 a month, 32.2% above the national figure, or roughly $22,308 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 31.7% 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 5.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 81.3% 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. 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.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
