Willow Park city, TX in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Willow Park city is a mid-size town in Texas, with 5,447 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #398 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 78% of them. The median age here is 43.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Willow Park city earn a median of $113,736 a year, 44.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 76% above 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 10.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Willow Park city is valued at $339,100, 11.8% above the national figure and 89% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,514 a month, 78.8% above the national figure, or roughly $30,168 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 26.5% 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×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 86% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
