What it’s like
The place. Cedaredge is a small town in Delta County, and most homes here are lived in by their owners. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and a good deal of snow falls each year, while summers are warm and the town gets little rain overall. A fair number of residents live below the poverty line, and the typical home value is well above what incomes in the county might suggest.
Work. Residents work mostly in shops, in schools, hospitals and social care, and in the building trades. Across Delta County, the largest workplaces include the Delta County school district, Delta County Memorial Hospital, and Walmart. Unemployment in the county is higher than it was a year ago, and the county has fewer jobs than it did the year before. The typical commute is a long one, and only a small share of people work from home.
Things to do. The Grand Mesa Scenic and Historic Byway runs in or beside town, so a scenic drive is close at hand. North Fork Gunnison River is a river a short drive away. Farther afield, a longer drive brings you to Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park and to Powderhorn Resort, a ski area.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Cedaredge’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Delta County and the Grand Junction, CO metro.
