Highland Haven, TX population, income and ZIP codes

Highland Haven city is a very small community in Texas, with 452 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1301 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 30% of them. The median age here is 71.2 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 Highland Haven city earn a median of $88,500 a year, 12.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 37% 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 4.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Highland Haven city is valued at $461,300, 52% above the national figure and 158% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,250 a month, 60% above the national figure, or roughly $27,000 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 30.5% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 94.7% 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.

A median age of 71.2 puts Highland Haven 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 452 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Highland Haven city against its county rather than against national figures.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
