Windsor town, CO in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Windsor town is a small city in Colorado, with 35,918 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #25 of 482 ranked by population — larger than 95% of them. The median age here is 40.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Windsor town earn a median of $121,758 a year, 55% above the national figure of $78,538 and 41% 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 4.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Windsor town is valued at $562,300, 85.3% above the national figure and 24% above the $453,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,780 a month, 26.6% above the national figure, or roughly $21,360 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.5% 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 4.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 78.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
