Godley city, TX in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Godley city is a small town in Texas, with 2,223 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #701 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 62% of them. The median age here is 35 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 Godley city earn a median of $93,182 a year, 18.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 44% above the $64,654 median for the 1,008 Texas cities we cover. 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 12.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Godley city is valued at $323,500, 6.6% above the national figure and 81% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,647 a month, 17.1% above the national figure, or roughly $19,764 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.2% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 83.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

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.
