Bluetown CDP, TX in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Bluetown CDP is a very small community in Texas, with 688 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1164 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 37% of them. The median age here is 23.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in Bluetown CDP earn a median of not published a year. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 44.5% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Bluetown CDP is valued at $55,300, 81.8% below the national figure and 69% below the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 77.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

A median age of 23.3 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 688 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Bluetown CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income, gross rent for Bluetown CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
