Glidden, TX population, income and ZIP codes

Glidden CDP is a very small community in Texas, with 341 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1393 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 25% of them. The median age here is 49.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Glidden CDP earn a median of $71,071 a year, 9.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 10% above 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 9.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Glidden CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 30.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

With 341 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Glidden CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Glidden 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.
