Pierce town, CO in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Pierce town is a small town in Colorado, with 1,102 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #214 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 55% of them. The median age here is 39.9 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 Pierce town earn a median of $66,313 a year, 15.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 23% 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 3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Pierce town is valued at $295,600, 2.6% below the national figure and 35% below the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,302 a month, 7.4% below the national figure, or roughly $15,624 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.6% 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 4.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 85.8% 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.
