Twin Lakes (Adams Co.), CO population, income and ZIP codes

Twin Lakes CDP (Adams County) is a mid-size town in Colorado, with 8,279 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #86 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 82% of them. The median age here is 38.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Twin Lakes CDP (Adams County) earn a median of $93,818 a year, 19.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 8% above the $86,484 median for the 223 Colorado cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 6.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Twin Lakes CDP (Adams County) is valued at $526,700, 73.6% above the national figure and 16% above the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,608 a month, 14.4% above the national figure, or roughly $19,296 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.6% 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 5.6×, 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.

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.
