Population Density
The Rancho Corona neighborhood in Gilbert, Arizona, experienced a significant population decline from 2010 to 2022. The number of residents decreased from 904 to 636, representing a 29.6% reduction over 12 years.
The population density decreased from 5,775.72 people per square mile in 2010 to 4,063.45 people per square mile in 2022. This reduction in density suggests changes in the living environment.
The neighborhood experienced population fluctuations during this period. A peak population of 995 was recorded in 2011, followed by a consistent decline. In 2020, there was a slight increase to 716 residents, before decreasing to 601 in 2021 and recovering to 636 in 2022.
The current population density of 4,063.45 people per square mile indicates that Rancho Corona remains a relatively dense suburban area. This density suggests a mix of housing types, potentially including single-family homes, townhouses, and low-rise apartment buildings.
Based on the national average household size of 2.61 persons, the estimated number of housing units for the 2022 population is 243.68. This suggests Rancho Corona maintains a family-oriented community structure.
The population decline in Rancho Corona contrasts with the broader growth trends of Gilbert, which has experienced rapid development over recent decades. This contrast may indicate that the neighborhood is undergoing a transition or facing unique local factors affecting its population dynamics.
The recent slight population increase from 2021 to 2022 may indicate the beginning of stabilization or a potential reversal of the long-term decline. Future data will be necessary to determine if this represents a new trend or a temporary fluctuation in the neighborhood's demographic pattern.
