Morenci, Arizona has about 1,673 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.
The Census Bureau did not publish a typical home value here.
HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Greenlee County is $1,043 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Morenci. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.
Arizona's prices sit at 100.7 when the U.S. average is 100. This place is not in a metro area with its own index, so this is the state number from BEA for 2024.
