Anderson ZIP codes — Anderson County, Texas

Anderson County is a small city in Texas, with 57,825 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates. The median age here is 39.5 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 Anderson County earn a median of $58,846 a year, 25.1% below the national figure of $78,538. 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 17.1% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Anderson County is valued at $173,400, 42.8% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,006 a month, 28.4% below the national figure, or roughly $12,072 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.5% 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 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 70% 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.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
