Azure, MT population, income and ZIP codes

Azure CDP is a very small community in Montana, with 454 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #162 of 497 ranked by population — larger than 67% of them. The median age here is 19 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 Azure CDP earn a median of $32,279 a year, 58.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 49% below the $62,992 median for the 94 Montana 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 53.1% 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 Azure CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $359 a month, 74.5% below the national figure, or roughly $4,308 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.3% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. 10.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

A median age of 19 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 454 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Azure CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld home value for Azure 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.
