ZIP 80111 in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
ZIP 80111 is a small city in Arapahoe County, Colorado, with 31,817 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #71 of 528 ranked by population — larger than 86% of them. The median age here is 42.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 ZIP 80111 earn a median of $132,292 a year, 68.4% above the national figure of $78,538. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 4.1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 80111 is valued at $890,500, 193.5% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $2,063 a month, 46.7% above the national figure, or roughly $24,756 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.7% 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 6.7×, 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. 63.5% 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.
Home values sit at 6.7× 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.
No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
Reading ZIP 80111 in context
How 80111 sits inside Arapahoe County and Colorado.
ZIP 80111 is tabulated inside Arapahoe County, Colorado, one of 17 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 528 across Colorado. This is a dense urban ZIP, where a single postal boundary can hold more residents than an entire rural county. County assignment on this page follows the largest share of the ZIP's land area, which matters where a delivery route crosses a county line: mail addressed to 80111 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.
Against its own county, 80111 reports a median household income of $132,292, 36% above the $97,167 county median, and 63% above the $80,917 typical CO ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $890,500, 59% above the county figure and 108% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $2,063 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.
Colorado charges 2.9% statewide, and local governments overlapping 80111 may add county, city or special-district levies on top. We publish the state floor for this ZIP rather than guessing a combined figure, because ZIP boundaries and taxing-district boundaries were drawn for different purposes and do not line up.
Everything above comes from the Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates for this ZIP Code Tabulation Area, with sales tax rates traced to the state revenue agency. Five-year estimates pool sixty months of responses, so they are stable enough to compare 80111 with its neighbours but always trail the current year, and any value the Census suppressed for sample size is shown as unpublished rather than filled in with a model.

Affordability in this ZIP
Derived from the Census medians above — indicative, not an offer.
A rent burden above 30% is the federal threshold for cost-burdened households, and a price-to-income multiple above 4× is generally considered a stretched housing market. The mortgage figure is principal and interest only — taxes, insurance and HOA dues are extra.
