Chamberino CDP, NM in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Chamberino CDP is a very small community in New Mexico, with 601 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #225 of 527 ranked by population — larger than 57% of them. The median age here is 39.8 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 Chamberino CDP earn a median of $60,694 a year, 22.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 12% above the $54,029 median for the 153 New Mexico cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 12.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Chamberino CDP is valued at $195,800, 35.5% below the national figure and 3% above the $190,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs $836 a month, 40.5% below the national figure, or roughly $10,032 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.5% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 80.3% 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.
