Holiday Lakes, TX population, income and ZIP codes

Holiday Lakes town is a very small community in Texas, with 853 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1081 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 41% of them. The median age here is 30.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Holiday Lakes town earn a median of $45,962 a year, 41.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 29% below the $64,654 median for the 1,008 Texas cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 27.7% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Holiday Lakes town is valued at $93,600, 69.1% below the national figure and 48% below the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $995 a month, 29.2% below the national figure, or roughly $11,940 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 26% 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 2×, 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. 82.6% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
