Avon, CO population, income and ZIP codes

Avon town is a mid-size town in Colorado, with 6,057 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #104 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 78% of them. The median age here is 35.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. 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 Avon town earn a median of $85,364 a year, 8.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of the $86,484 median for the 223 Colorado cities we cover. 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 12.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Avon town is valued at $689,000, 127.1% above the national figure and 52% above the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,132 a month, 51.6% above the national figure, or roughly $25,584 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 30% 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 8.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is out of reach on local earnings alone and the ownership market leans on outside income, equity or dual high earners. 46% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

Home values sit at 8.1× median household income, far past the 3.9× national mark, so ownership costs here are set by something other than local wages — second homes, retirees with equity, or commuters earning elsewhere.

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.
