Monterey Park CDP, NM in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Monterey Park CDP is a very small community in New Mexico, with 814 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #181 of 527 ranked by population — larger than 65% of them. The median age here is 34.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Monterey Park CDP earn a median of $28,293 a year, 64% below the national figure of $78,538 and 48% 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 39.2% 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 Monterey Park CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 100% 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.
With 814 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Monterey Park CDP against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Monterey Park 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.
