Nordic, WY population, income and ZIP codes

Nordic CDP is a very small community in Wyoming, with 273 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #110 of 205 ranked by population — larger than 46% of them. The median age here is 36.4 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 Nordic CDP earn a median of $85,855 a year, 9.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 23% above the $69,912 median for the 54 Wyoming 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 20.5% 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 Nordic CDP is valued at $367,500, 21.1% above the national figure and 46% above the $251,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 89.4% 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. 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.

Median income runs above the national figure while poverty also runs above it — a split distribution, not a uniformly comfortable place. Averages hide that; the two numbers together do not. With 273 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Nordic CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Nordic 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.
