This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Cottonwood through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 149 with a margin of error of plus or minus 103, which is 69.1 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.
Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Apache County, not Cottonwood
Apache County context, not Cottonwood figures
These are Apache County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Cottonwood measurements.
- Establishments in Apache County442
- Employment at those establishments, Apache County6,112
- Covered employment, Apache County16,611
- Average annual pay, Apache County$56,805
- Average weekly wage, Apache County$1,092
- Housing units permitted, Apache County93
- Of those, single family, Apache County91
- County product, 2024, Apache County$2,947,583,000
- County product change over the prior year, Apache County1.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Apache County$47,101
Every figure in this section is published for Apache County as a whole and is not a measurement of Cottonwood. It is here because a county backdrop is what a credit committee reads a place against, and it is labelled so that it can never be quoted as the place's own.

Coverage
What this page does not hold.
Every item below could be filled with a plausible figure. None of them is. On a page a lender may read, a number that cannot be traced is worse than an absence, so the absences are named.
- No SBA figures are shown. withheld: Arizona has 2 places named Cottonwood and the tape records none of their loans in Apache County.
- The American Community Survey does not publish a median household income for this place, which happens where the sample is too small to support one.
- No median gross rent is published for this place.
- Parcel level detail, zoning and flood zone at an address are resolved in the platform, not on this page.
SBA figures count approvals to borrowers whose address is in the place. They are not approvals for projects inside the place boundary: the tape records a borrower city and a project county, and those can differ.
Common questions
Cottonwood questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Cottonwood, Arizona?
149, in 70 households. Cottonwood CDP covers 0.16 square miles of land, which is 951 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Cottonwood in?
Apache County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.
Is Cottonwood in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Cottonwood appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 040096, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.
Are the county figures on this page Cottonwood figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Apache County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Cottonwood.
Is zoning published for Cottonwood?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
