The population has remained relatively stable, with a slight decrease from 549 in 2013 to 554 in 2022. The increase in median income alongside the slight increase in diversity suggests that the community may be attracting more affluent residents from diverse backgrounds.
The trend of increasing diversity aligns with broader national trends of growing racial and ethnic diversity in the United States. The significant increase in median income outpaces national averages for income growth over the same period. The stable population in a rural area, with a low population density of about 5.75 people per square mile, is noteworthy.
Climax remains a "Low Diversity" community, but there are signs of gradual demographic shifts towards increased diversity. These changes are occurring alongside significant economic growth, as evidenced by the substantial increase in median income. The community appears to be maintaining its population while becoming more prosperous, which could potentially lead to further demographic changes in the future if this trend continues.
