Flatonia town, TX in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Flatonia town is a small town in Texas, with 1,741 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #791 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 57% of them. The median age here is 39.1 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 Flatonia town earn a median of $66,344 a year, 15.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 3% 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 5.5% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Flatonia town is valued at $176,700, 41.8% below the national figure and within a couple of points of the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $683 a month, 51.4% below the national figure, or roughly $8,196 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. 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. 77.5% 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.
