San Carlos II, TX population, income and ZIP codes

San Carlos II CDP is a very small community in Texas, with 305 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1433 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 23% of them. The median age here is 35.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 San Carlos II CDP earn a median of $2,499 a year, 96.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 96% below the $64,654 median for the 1,008 Texas cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 22.3% 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 San Carlos II CDP is valued at $38,800, 87.2% below the national figure and 78% below the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 15.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is out of reach on local earnings alone and the ownership market leans on outside income, equity or dual high earners. 100% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

Home values sit at 15.5× median household income, far past the 3.9× national mark, so ownership costs here are set by something other than local wages — second homes, retirees with equity, or commuters earning elsewhere. With 305 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare San Carlos II CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for San Carlos II CDP 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.
