La Puebla, NM population, income and ZIP codes

La Puebla CDP is a very small community in New Mexico, with 844 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #172 of 527 ranked by population — larger than 67% of them. The median age here is 42.1 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 La Puebla CDP earn a median of $86,083 a year, 9.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 59% above the $54,029 median for the 153 New Mexico cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 2.6% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in La Puebla CDP is valued at $297,600, 1.9% below the national figure and 57% above the $190,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 77.5% 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.

With 844 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare La Puebla CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for La Puebla 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.
