Cimarron, KS population, income and ZIP codes

Cimarron city is a small town in Kansas, with 1,942 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #129 of 740 ranked by population — larger than 82% of them. The median age here is 33.5 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 Cimarron city earn a median of $92,762 a year, 18.1% above the national figure of $78,538 and 46% above the $63,750 median for the 200 Kansas cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 14.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Cimarron city is valued at $162,500, 46.4% below the national figure and 24% above the $131,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $849 a month, 39.6% below the national figure, or roughly $10,188 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 11% 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 1.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 67.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.

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.
