Keokea, HI population, income and ZIP codes

Keokea CDP is a small town in Hawaii, with 3,049 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #82 of 163 ranked by population — larger than 50% of them. The median age here is 37.6 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 Keokea CDP earn a median of $119,464 a year, 52.1% above the national figure of $78,538 and 30% above the $92,062 median for the 124 Hawaii cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 9.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Keokea CDP is valued at $749,100, 146.9% above the national figure and within a couple of points of the $768,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,918 a month, 36.4% above the national figure, or roughly $23,016 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.3% 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 6.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is out of reach on local earnings alone and the ownership market leans on outside income, equity or dual high earners. 80% 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. 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.

Home values sit at 6.3× median household income, far past the 3.9× national mark, so ownership costs here are set by something other than local wages — second homes, retirees with equity, or commuters earning elsewhere.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
