Garden City has maintained its status as a low diversity community over the past decade. The white population has consistently represented over 85% of the total population from 2013 to 2022. Minor changes in diversity include a stable Hispanic population between 6-8%, a slight increase in the Asian population from 0% to 1%, and growth in the "Two or More Races" category from 1% to 3%.
The median income in Garden City has increased from $64,127 in 2013 to $72,589 in 2022, representing a 13.2% growth over nine years. A significant increase occurred between 2020 and 2021, reaching $84,997 before declining in 2022. The population has grown steadily, increasing from 21,658 in 2013 to 29,072 in 2022, a 34.2% rise.
The persistent low diversity combined with rising incomes and population growth suggests the area may be attracting more affluent white residents. The slight increases in diversity, particularly in the Asian and multiracial categories, could be related to economic growth, potentially attracting a small number of diverse, high-skilled workers.
Garden City's trends can be contextualized within broader patterns. The persistent low diversity contrasts with national trends towards increasing diversity in many urban and suburban areas. The significant population growth of 34.2% over nine years exceeds the national average, indicating Garden City is an attractive destination for new residents. The median income growth, while substantial, is not uncommon in rapidly growing communities, especially those near expanding urban centers.
In conclusion, Garden City remains a low diversity community with subtle signs of demographic change. The area's economic growth and population increase suggest it is an attractive location, potentially due to job opportunities or quality of life factors. However, this growth has not yet resulted in significant increases in racial diversity. Future years may reveal whether these minor shifts in demographics will accelerate or if the community will maintain its current composition.
