Weatherford city, TX in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Weatherford city is a small city in Texas, with 33,924 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #105 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 94% of them. The median age here is 37.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. 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 Weatherford city earn a median of $78,738 a year, essentially level with the national figure of $78,538 and 22% 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 10.9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Weatherford city is valued at $285,000, 6.1% below the national figure and 59% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,474 a month, 4.8% above the national figure, or roughly $17,688 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22.5% 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. 63.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
