Population Hispanic % by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — New Mexico

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Hispanic population percentages across New Mexico's zip codes display striking geographic variation, with the highest concentrations (50%+) clustering along the southern border region, the Rio Grande corridor, and portions of the northeast, while the lowest percentages (under 10%) appear predominantly in the northwest—areas largely corresponding to Navajo Nation and other tribal lands. The Albuquerque metro area exhibits a patchwork of moderate-to-high Hispanic percentages, contrasting with the more uniformly low values in the Four Corners region and parts of the central-west. This spatial pattern reflects the historical settlement of Hispano communities along river valleys and in southern border counties, distinct from the Indigenous-majority populations in the northwest quadrant of the state.
