Aguilar town, CO in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Aguilar town is a very small community in Colorado, with 442 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #300 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 37% of them. The median age here is 61.5 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 Aguilar town earn a median of $29,593 a year, 62.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 66% below the $86,484 median for the 223 Colorado 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 14.9% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Aguilar town is valued at $87,100, 71.3% below the national figure and 81% below the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 74.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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 61.5 puts Aguilar town 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 442 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Aguilar town against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld gross rent for Aguilar town 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.
