Albany ZIP codes — Albany County, Wyoming

Albany County is a small city in Wyoming, with 37,713 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates. The median age here is 28.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Albany County earn a median of $59,881 a year, 23.8% below the national figure of $78,538. 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 21% 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 Albany County is valued at $322,100, 6.2% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $936 a month, 33.4% below the national figure, or roughly $11,232 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 49.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

A median age of 28.7 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address.
