Red River, NM population, income and ZIP codes

Red River town is a very small community in New Mexico, with 456 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #265 of 527 ranked by population — larger than 49% of them. The median age here is 44 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.

The Census withheld household income for Red River town 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.
