Over the past decade, Farmington has consistently maintained its status as a Low Diversity community with a White Majority. However, there are subtle signs of increasing diversity. The white population decreased from 98% in 2013 to 91% in 2022. The Asian population increased from negligible levels to 3% by 2022. The Black population emerged as a measurable demographic at 2% by 2020. The population identifying as two or more races increased from 1% to 2% over the decade. While these changes are gradual, they suggest a slow transition towards slightly increased diversity, though not enough to change the overall categorization of the community.
The median income in Farmington has shown fluctuations over the past decade. From 2013 to 2019, there was a steady increase from $60,753 to $74,941. From 2020 to 2022, there was a decline and fluctuation, ending at $68,610 in 2022. The population has remained relatively stable, with a slight increase from 6,859 in 2013 to 6,859 in 2022, peaking at 7,062 in 2020 before a slight decline.
The economic trends do not show a strong correlation with the subtle demographic shifts. The income growth until 2019 occurred while the community remained overwhelmingly white. The recent income decline coincides with a slight increase in diversity, but this may be more related to broader economic factors than local demographic changes.
