The quick read
Reading Windsor, CO beyond the headline numbers
Windsor sits inside Weld County, Colorado, at roughly 40.48°N, -104.90°W. Population 21,751, $127,028 median household income. Median home value $604,000, median rent $1,793. Poverty rate 6%, read against that income figure since two cities on the same median can differ underneath it.
Hardship is low by national standards: 6% of Windsor, CO residents live below the poverty line, in the least-affected quarter of the 3,890 cities reporting a rate.
A median home in Windsor runs about 4.8 times median household income, above the midpoint. Multiples in this range usually mean buyers are arriving from outside the local wage base.
20.4% of Windsor workers report working from home, the highest quarter of reporting cities. Where that share runs this high, local income increasingly reflects employers located somewhere else.
Among the CDC measures on this page, binge drinking departs furthest from its peer median: 19.4% in Windsor, the highest-prevalence quarter of the 3,759 cities reporting that measure.
