Flagler town, CO in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Flagler town is a very small community in Colorado, with 597 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #270 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 44% of them. The median age here is 41.2 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 Flagler town earn a median of $37,941 a year, 51.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 56% below 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 8.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Flagler town is valued at $123,600, 59.3% below the national figure and 73% below the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $840 a month, 40.3% below the national figure, or roughly $10,080 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 26.6% 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 3.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 51.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
