Organ, NM population, income and ZIP codes

Organ CDP is a very small community in New Mexico, with 151 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #386 of 527 ranked by population — larger than 26% of them. The median age here is 56.4 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 Organ CDP earn a median of $240,903 a year, 206.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 346% above 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 0% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Organ CDP is valued at $121,500, 60% below the national figure and 36% below the $190,000 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 0.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 68.9% 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 56.4 puts Organ 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 151 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Organ CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Organ 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.
