Hidalgo lands in the national county income distribution as below-median household income on low-population county footing (FIPS 35023, 4 ZIPs, combined population 4,865). On this short ZIP list the county page is mainly the FIPS bridge - household ACS fields live on the primary ZIP.
Below-median income with few ZIPs: start cost-of-living reads on the primary code (88045), not the county mean. This page exists to join FIPS 35023 to HUD/FBI tables once the ZIP is chosen.
Combined population stays under five thousand - this is a thin rural FIPS. Bookmark one ZIP; a multi-ZIP shortlist rarely adds signal beyond the primary code's ACS row.
Within New Mexico, Curry is the closest lower-income county and Rio Arriba the closest higher-income county by average ZIP household income.
