Springdale, Montana (zip code 59082) is classified as a "Low Diversity" community. As of 2022, the white population constitutes 90% of the total population. The community has a population of 29 people and an estimated 11 housing units in 2022, indicating a very small rural community.
Throughout the decade, Springdale has maintained its "Low Diversity" status. The white population has consistently remained above 90%, with minor fluctuations. From 2018 onwards, a small Hispanic population of approximately 5% emerged. In 2022, 3% of the population identified as two or more races, slightly increasing the community's diversity. Despite these changes, the community remains in the "Low Diversity" classification.
The median income in Springdale has fluctuated over the years. From 2013 to 2014, there was a significant decrease in median income from $51,236 to $45,534. Between 2014 and 2021, a general upward trend in median income was observed, reaching $56,442 in 2021. In 2022, the median income decreased to $53,391. These economic shifts do not appear to strongly correlate with the minor demographic changes observed.
Population trends have remained relatively stable, fluctuating between 19 and 29 residents over the decade. The 2022 population of 29 residents represents the highest in the observed period, though given the small numbers, this change may not be statistically significant.
Springdale appears resistant to significant demographic change, which is not uncommon for very small, rural communities. These communities often maintain more homogeneous populations compared to urban and suburban areas. The median income in Springdale ($53,391 in 2022) is lower than the national median household income of approximately $70,784 in 2021. However, for a rural area in Montana, this income level may be considered relatively stable.
The slight increase in diversity observed in recent years, while minimal, could potentially indicate the beginning of a very slow transition. However, given the extremely small population size, even minor changes in resident composition can lead to seemingly significant percentage shifts, so these trends should be interpreted cautiously.
In conclusion, Springdale remains a low-diversity, predominantly white community with relatively stable economic indicators. The changes in diversity are minimal and have not yet significantly altered the community's demographic or economic profile.
