The zip code 59211 in Antelope, Montana, is classified as a Low Diversity community with a White Majority as of 2022. The area has a population of 131 residents and a median income of $53,686. This rural community has maintained a predominantly white population over the past decade, with minimal representation from other racial groups.
Throughout the 2013-2022 period, Antelope has consistently fallen under the Low Diversity category, with the white population consistently exceeding 75% of the total. The white population decreased slightly from 96% in 2013 to 91% in 2022. The Hispanic population increased from 1% in 2013 to 4% in 2022. The category of two or more races fluctuated, peaking at 7% in 2018 before settling at 4% in 2022.
The median income in Antelope has shown fluctuations over the past decade. There was an increase from $49,758 in 2013 to a peak of $59,728 in 2016. Following this peak, there was a decline to $50,753 in 2019. Since then, there has been a moderate recovery to $53,686 in 2022. These economic shifts do not appear to correlate strongly with the minor demographic changes observed.
Population trends have remained relatively stable, fluctuating between 112 and 134 residents over the decade. This stability suggests that the community is not experiencing significant in-migration or out-migration that might drive rapid demographic change.
The rural Montana community of Antelope appears to be changing at a much slower rate compared to national trends of increasing diversity, particularly in urban and suburban regions. The slight increase in Hispanic population and residents of two or more races aligns with broader national trends, but at a significantly reduced scale.
The economic fluctuations observed in Antelope may reflect broader rural economic challenges, including limited economic diversification and dependence on specific industries.
Antelope shows very early signs of potentially becoming a Transitional Community, but it remains firmly in the Low Diversity category with a strong White Majority. The community's demographic and economic trends suggest a relatively stable, slow-changing rural environment that is only marginally affected by broader national demographic shifts.
