Hasty, CO population, income and ZIP codes

Hasty CDP is a very small community in Colorado, with 94 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #413 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 14% of them. The median age here is 55.7 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 Hasty CDP earn a median of $24,375 a year, 69% below the national figure of $78,538 and 72% 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 51.1% 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 Hasty CDP is valued at $93,200, 69.3% below the national figure and 79% below the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $825 a month, 41.3% below the national figure, or roughly $9,900 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 40.6% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is severely stretched — a median-income renter clears the cost-burden line by a wide margin before utilities beyond the gross-rent definition. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 72% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

Hasty CDP is the unusual combination of expensive to rent and cheap to buy: rent takes 40.6% of median income while homes cost only 3.8× it. Where that pattern shows up, the gap is normally down to down-payment and credit barriers rather than price. A median age of 55.7 puts Hasty CDP 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.
