Laporte CDP, CO in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Laporte CDP is a small town in Colorado, with 2,123 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #171 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 64% of them. The median age here is 46.5 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 Laporte CDP earn a median of $67,697 a year, 13.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 22% 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 16.8% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Laporte CDP is valued at $373,100, 23% above the national figure and 18% below the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,107 a month, 21.3% below the national figure, or roughly $13,284 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.6% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 71.6% 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.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
