Windthorst, TX population, income and ZIP codes

Windthorst town is a very small community in Texas, with 397 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1347 of 1,863 ranked by population — larger than 27% of them. The median age here is 46.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Windthorst town earn a median of $53,750 a year, 31.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 17% below 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 13.4% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Windthorst town is valued at $197,500, 34.9% below the national figure and 10% above the $179,100 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 93.8% 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. 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.

With 397 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Windthorst town against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Windthorst town 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.
