Presidio, TX population, income and ZIP codes

Presidio city is a small town in Texas, with 3,226 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #542 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 70% of them. The median age here is 22.5 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 Presidio city earn a median of $16,762 a year, 78.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 74% 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 50.7% 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 Presidio city is valued at $59,300, 80.5% below the national figure and 67% below the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 69.2% 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.

A median age of 22.5 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address.

The Census withheld gross rent for Presidio 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.
