Crest View, a neighborhood in Parker, Colorado, exhibits a distinct demographic profile. As of 2022, it is classified as a "Low Diversity" community with a "White Majority," where 90% of the population identifies as white. The neighborhood has a high median income of $157,474, which is considerably above the national average. Crest View has experienced significant population growth, increasing from 696 residents in 2010 to 1,717 in 2022.
Throughout the analyzed period, Crest View has maintained its status as a "Low Diversity" community with a "White Majority." From 2013 to 2015, the white population increased from 87% to 98%. Following 2015, there was a gradual increase in Hispanic representation, reaching 15% in 2019-2020, which briefly moved the neighborhood towards "Moderate Diversity." This trend reversed slightly in recent years, with the Hispanic population settling at 10% by 2022.
The community has not transitioned between major diversity categories, but the fluctuations in Hispanic population suggest a "Transitional Community" characteristic on a small scale. These changes may be attributed to evolving employment opportunities or housing developments in the area attracting a slightly more diverse population.
The median income in Crest View has shown significant volatility over the years, correlating with demographic shifts. The highest median income of $189,765 was recorded in 2014 when the white population was at 90%. A notable dip in median income to $99,396 occurred in 2016, coinciding with a sudden drop in population from 698 to 380. This could indicate a period of transition or redevelopment in the neighborhood.
As the Hispanic population increased from 2016 to 2019, the median income showed an upward trend, reaching $148,293 in 2018. The overall population also grew significantly during this period, which could have influenced the income dynamics more than the slight increase in diversity. The most recent data shows a return to very high median income levels ($157,474 in 2022), coinciding with a slight decrease in Hispanic representation and a stabilization of the white majority at 90%.
The demographic trends in Crest View contrast with broader national trends towards increasing diversity. While many urban and suburban areas across the United States have seen significant increases in racial and ethnic diversity over the past decade, Crest View has maintained a relatively stable, predominantly white population. The neighborhood's high median income and low diversity could be indicative of broader patterns of economic and racial segregation seen in many affluent suburbs across the country.
The substantial population growth in Crest View, more than doubling over a decade, is notable and could be part of a larger trend of suburban expansion in the Denver metropolitan area. This growth, combined with consistently high median incomes, may indicate that Crest View is part of a desirable, expanding suburban region attracting affluent residents, possibly due to factors such as good schools, job opportunities, or quality of life.
