Parker, TX population, income and ZIP codes

Parker city is a mid-size town in Texas, with 5,776 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #384 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 79% of them. The median age here is 45.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Parker city earn a median of $216,179 a year, 175.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 234% 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 1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Parker city is valued at $852,000, 180.8% above the national figure and 376% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 98.2% 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.

The Census withheld gross rent for Parker city because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
