Latham, KS population, income and ZIP codes

Latham city is a very small community in Kansas, with 164 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #469 of 740 ranked by population — larger than 36% of them. The median age here is 23.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Latham city earn a median of not published a year. 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 69.2% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Latham city is valued at $27,500, 90.9% below the national figure and 79% below the $131,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $577 a month, 59% below the national figure, or roughly $6,924 across a full year. 25.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

A median age of 23.7 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 164 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Latham city against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income for Latham city because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
