ZIP code 76016

ZIP 76016 is a small city in Tarrant County, Texas, with 31,191 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #357 of 1,989 ranked by population — larger than 82% of them. The median age here is 42 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 ZIP 76016 earn a median of $108,701 a year, 38.4% above the national figure of $78,538. 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 4.5% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 76016 is valued at $311,200, 2.6% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,854 a month, 31.9% above the national figure, or roughly $22,248 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. 83.6% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.

ZIP 76016 is tabulated inside Tarrant County, Texas, one of 66 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 1,989 across Texas. This is a dense urban ZIP, where a single postal boundary can hold more residents than an entire rural county. County assignment on this page follows the largest share of the ZIP's land area, which matters where a delivery route crosses a county line: mail addressed to 76016 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 76016 reports a median household income of $108,701, 38% above the $78,688 county median, and 60% above the $68,103 typical TX ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $311,200, 9% above the county figure and 60% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,854 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

A taxable purchase made inside 76016 carries 8.25% at the register, assembled from the Arlington jurisdiction stack: the Texas state rate plus every county, municipal and special district levy that reaches this address. Because those district boundaries were drawn for schools, transit and hospital funding rather than for mail delivery, two addresses inside 76016 can legitimately fall under different totals — the rate shown here is the one that applies to the dominant jurisdiction.

Everything above comes from the Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates for this ZIP Code Tabulation Area, with sales tax rates traced to the state revenue agency. Five-year estimates pool sixty months of responses, so they are stable enough to compare 76016 with its neighbours but always trail the current year, and any value the Census suppressed for sample size is shown as unpublished rather than filled in with a model.
