Aledo city, TX in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Aledo city is a mid-size town in Texas, with 5,432 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #401 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 78% of them. The median age here is 39.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Aledo city earn a median of $152,083 a year, 93.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 135% above the $64,654 median for the 1,008 Texas cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Aledo city is valued at $409,300, 34.9% above the national figure and 129% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,604 a month, 85.2% above the national figure, or roughly $31,248 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.5% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 90.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
