Grey Forest, TX population, income and ZIP codes

Grey Forest city is a very small community in Texas, with 677 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1172 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 37% of them. The median age here is 57.2 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 Grey Forest city earn a median of $122,222 a year, 55.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 89% above the $64,654 median for the 1,008 Texas cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Grey Forest city is valued at $436,500, 43.9% above the national figure and 144% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $796 a month, 43.4% below the national figure, or roughly $9,552 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 7.8% 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 3.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 95.6% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

A median age of 57.2 puts Grey Forest city well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 677 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Grey Forest city against its county rather than against national figures.
