Copperton metro township, UT in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Copperton metro township is a very small community in Utah, with 865 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #184 of 334 ranked by population — larger than 45% of them. The median age here is 32 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Copperton metro township earn a median of $77,778 a year, 1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 15% below the $91,818 median for the 170 Utah 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 7.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Copperton metro township is valued at $375,000, 23.6% above the national figure and 14% below the $437,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,358 a month, 3.4% below the national figure, or roughly $16,296 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 54.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
