Alamillo, NM population, income and ZIP codes

Alamillo CDP is a very small community in New Mexico, with 168 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #371 of 527 ranked by population — larger than 29% of them. The median age here is 64.1 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 Alamillo CDP earn a median of $31,447 a year, 60% below the national figure of $78,538 and 42% below the $54,029 median for the 153 New Mexico 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 56.5% 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 Alamillo CDP is valued at $111,800, 63.2% below the national figure and 41% below the $190,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 65.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.

A median age of 64.1 puts Alamillo 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 168 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Alamillo CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Alamillo 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.
