West Pleasant View, CO population, income and ZIP codes

West Pleasant View CDP is a mid-size town in Colorado, with 5,221 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #114 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 76% of them. The median age here is 34.1 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 West Pleasant View CDP earn a median of $89,352 a year, 13.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 3% above 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 16.5% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in West Pleasant View CDP is valued at $454,000, 49.6% above the national figure and within a couple of points of the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,795 a month, 27.7% above the national figure, or roughly $21,540 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.1% 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 5.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 59.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

Median income runs above the national figure while poverty also runs above it — a split distribution, not a uniformly comfortable place. Averages hide that; the two numbers together do not.
