Hart, TX population, income and ZIP codes

Hart city is a very small community in Texas, with 869 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1076 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 42% 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 Hart city earn a median of $45,000 a year, 42.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 30% 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 18.1% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Hart city is valued at $60,400, 80.1% below the national figure and 66% below the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $732 a month, 47.9% below the national figure, or roughly $8,784 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.5% 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 1.3×, 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. 76.3% 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.

With 869 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Hart city against its county rather than against national figures.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
