Stratton town, CO in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Stratton town is a very small community in Colorado, with 729 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #253 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 47% of them. The median age here is 34.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Stratton town earn a median of $57,656 a year, 26.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 33% below the $86,484 median for the 223 Colorado cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 8.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Stratton town is valued at $158,500, 47.8% below the national figure and 65% below the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 61.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.

With 729 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Stratton town against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Stratton town because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
