Splendora, TX population, income and ZIP codes

Splendora city is a small town in Texas, with 2,167 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #711 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 61% of them. The median age here is 28.6 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 Splendora city earn a median of $69,000 a year, 12.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 7% above the $64,654 median for the 1,008 Texas cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 16.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Splendora city is valued at $250,200, 17.5% below the national figure and 40% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,161 a month, 17.4% below the national figure, or roughly $13,932 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.2% 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 3.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 67.1% 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.

A median age of 28.6 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.
