Guadalupe County, NM Property Records & Statistics
Guadalupe County has a median rent of $411, well below the New Mexico figure of $729.50 and the national figure of $840.25. Renter-occupied housing makes up 16.72% of occupied homes, lower than the state share of 22.67% and the national share of 21.81%, which suggests a market where most residents own their homes rather than rent.
The median home value is $48,500, far under the state median of $142,200 and the national median of $173,750. The median property tax rate of 0.69% is higher than the state rate of 0.5% but slightly below the national rate of 0.74%. Purchase prices are low, yet the tax rate is not especially light compared with the rest of New Mexico, so owners keep a larger share of a small property value in taxes than their state neighbors do.
Household finances are tighter than in most places. Median household income is $32,660, compared with $48,102 statewide and $65,108 nationally. The unemployment rate of 6.47% is well above the state rate of 3.48% and the national rate of 2.87%, pointing to a smaller local job base and fewer employment options.
Taken together, the figures describe an affordable rural county with low rents and home values, lower incomes and higher unemployment than the state and the nation, and a housing market dominated by owner-occupied homes.
