Lyman, UT population, income and ZIP codes

Lyman town is a very small community in Utah, with 235 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #288 of 334 ranked by population — larger than 13% of them. The median age here is 37.6 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 Lyman town earn a median of $50,625 a year, 35.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 45% below the $91,818 median for the 170 Utah 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 42.1% 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 Lyman town is valued at $371,900, 22.6% above the national figure and 15% below the $437,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 7.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is out of reach on local earnings alone and the ownership market leans on outside income, equity or dual high earners. 66.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

Home values sit at 7.3× median household income, far past the 3.9× national mark, so ownership costs here are set by something other than local wages — second homes, retirees with equity, or commuters earning elsewhere. With 235 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Lyman town against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Lyman 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.
