Ken Caryl, CO population, income and ZIP codes

Ken Caryl CDP is a small city in Colorado, with 33,407 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #29 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 94% of them. The median age here is 41.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Ken Caryl CDP earn a median of $116,838 a year, 48.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 35% above 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 3.4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Ken Caryl CDP is valued at $565,700, 86.5% above the national figure and 25% above the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,950 a month, 38.7% above the national figure, or roughly $23,400 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20% 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 4.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 83.6% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
