Dacono city, CO in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Dacono city is a mid-size town in Colorado, with 6,419 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #100 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 79% of them. The median age here is 32.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Dacono city earn a median of $99,389 a year, 26.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 15% above the $86,484 median for the 223 Colorado 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 5.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Dacono city is valued at $448,200, 47.7% above the national figure and within a couple of points of the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,823 a month, 29.7% above the national figure, or roughly $21,876 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22% 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 4.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 81.8% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
