Centerville city, TX in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Centerville city is a very small community in Texas, with 946 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1046 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 43% of them. The median age here is 37.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. 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 Centerville city earn a median of $50,066 a year, 36.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 23% below 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 8.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Centerville city is valued at $158,300, 47.8% below the national figure and 12% below the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $970 a month, 31% below the national figure, or roughly $11,640 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.2% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 55.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
