Gildford CDP, MT in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Gildford CDP is a very small community in Montana, with 132 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #291 of 497 ranked by population — larger than 41% of them. The median age here is 43.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Gildford CDP earn a median of $48,897 a year, 37.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 22% below the $62,992 median for the 94 Montana cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 3.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Gildford CDP is valued at $98,800, 67.4% below the national figure and 61% below the $250,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2×, 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. 60% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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 132 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Gildford CDP against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld gross rent for Gildford 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.
