New Miami Colony, MT population, income and ZIP codes

New Miami Colony CDP is a very small community in Montana, with 309 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #201 of 497 ranked by population — larger than 59% of them. The median age here is 20.8 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 New Miami Colony CDP earn a median of $2,499 a year, 96.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 96% 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 68.6% 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 New Miami Colony CDP is valued at $230,000, 24.2% below the national figure and 8% below the $250,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 92×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is out of reach on local earnings alone and the ownership market leans on outside income, equity or dual high earners. 44.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

Home values sit at 92× median household income, far past the 3.9× national mark, so ownership costs here are set by something other than local wages — second homes, retirees with equity, or commuters earning elsewhere. A median age of 20.8 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.

The Census withheld gross rent for New Miami Colony 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.
