Inkom, ID population, income and ZIP codes

Inkom city is a very small community in Idaho, with 810 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #116 of 236 ranked by population — larger than 51% of them. The median age here is 34.7 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 Inkom city earn a median of $81,528 a year, 3.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 28% above the $63,864 median for the 100 Idaho 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 1.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Inkom city is valued at $250,500, 17.4% below the national figure and 8% below the $271,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,036 a month, 26.3% below the national figure, or roughly $12,432 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.2% 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 3.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 89% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

With 810 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Inkom city against its county rather than against national figures.
