Cedaredge, CO population, income and ZIP codes

Cedaredge town is a small town in Colorado, with 2,394 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #163 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 66% of them. The median age here is 53.1 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 Cedaredge town earn a median of $41,944 a year, 46.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 52% below 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 24.7% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Cedaredge town is valued at $240,300, 20.8% below the national figure and 47% below the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,106 a month, 21.3% below the national figure, or roughly $13,272 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 31.6% 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. 71.7% 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 53.1 puts Cedaredge 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.

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.
