How this ranking is built
A place is included when its own page for this figure is published as reliable: a coefficient of variation of 30% or less and enough surveyed homes.
484 places qualify; the rest are on their own pages with their margins, but not ranked here.
The ranking orders the estimates alone: where two places’ margins of error overlap, their ranks may not truly differ, and places at the same published figure share a rank.
A median published as a bound (“$3,500 or more”) is placed at the bound; its true place may be higher.
- Texas places ranked by median rent
- Texas places ranked by median home value
- Texas places ranked by median household income
- Texas places ranked by property taxes
- Texas places ranked by share of renters
- Texas places ranked by age of homes
- Texas places ranked by rental vacancy rate
- Texas places ranked by commute time
Survey years: 2020–2024 (American Community Survey 5-year estimates).
