Spearman city, TX in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Spearman city is a small town in Texas, with 2,809 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #607 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 67% of them. The median age here is 40.8 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 Spearman city earn a median of $66,903 a year, 14.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 3% above 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 7.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Spearman city is valued at $135,100, 55.5% below the national figure and 25% below the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $694 a month, 50.6% below the national figure, or roughly $8,328 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. 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. 74.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
