Coolidge town, TX in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Coolidge town is a very small community in Texas, with 899 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1066 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 42% of them. The median age here is 29.6 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 Coolidge town earn a median of $37,350 a year, 52.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 42% below the $64,654 median for the 1,008 Texas cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 15.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Coolidge town is valued at $64,000, 78.9% below the national figure and 64% below the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $780 a month, 44.5% below the national figure, or roughly $9,360 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 25.1% 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 1.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 48.6% 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.
A median age of 29.6 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 899 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Coolidge town against its county rather than against national figures.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
