Cambria, MI population, income and ZIP codes

Cambria CDP is a very small community in Michigan, with 155 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #709 of 745 ranked by population — larger than 4% of them. The median age here is 61.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Cambria CDP 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 12.9% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Cambria CDP is valued at $98,500, 67.5% below the national figure and 41% below the $166,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 88.8% 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. 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 61.1 puts Cambria CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 155 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Cambria CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income, gross rent for Cambria CDP 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.
