Midway, TX population, income and ZIP codes

Midway city is a very small community in Texas, with 234 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1507 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 19% of them. The median age here is 41.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Midway city earn a median of $57,500 a year, 26.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 11% 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 13.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Midway city is valued at $99,100, 67.3% below the national figure and 45% below the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,150 a month, 18.2% below the national figure, or roughly $13,800 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24% 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 1.7×, 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. 73.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
