Population Density
The Cayman Square neighborhood in Gilbert, Arizona, experienced demographic changes from 2010 to 2022. The population decreased from 1,275 residents to 1,029, a 19.3% reduction over 12 years.
Population density data in 2022 showed 8,008.45 people per square mile, indicating a light urban environment. This suggests a neighborhood of low to mid-rise apartments or condominiums, with developed infrastructure including public transportation and community amenities.
Population fluctuations occurred during this period. The peak was in 2012 with 1,358 residents, followed by a gradual decrease. A slight increase to 1,111 residents occurred in 2019 before the downward trend resumed.
The high density, maintained despite population decline, indicates Cayman Square retains its urban character. Residents likely have access to nearby shopping, dining, and cultural venues typical of light urban areas. The community may consist of long-term residents and a transient population, potentially explaining population fluctuations.
In 2022, with 394 estimated housing units and the national average household size of 2.61 persons, Cayman Square may have a lower occupancy rate or smaller household sizes than the national average. This could indicate a demographic shift towards smaller families, single professionals, or retirees.
The reasons for population decline are not evident from the data alone. Factors such as changing job markets, housing preferences, or local development patterns could contribute to this trend. The consistent high density suggests Cayman Square remains attractive for those seeking an urban lifestyle within Gilbert, known for rapid growth and suburban expansion in recent years.
