ZIP code 76028

ZIP 76028 is a small city in Johnson County, Texas, with 78,699 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #30 of 1,989 ranked by population — larger than 98% of them. The median age here is 37.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this size the Census also publishes one-year estimates; the five-year values used here are steadier and let you compare against smaller neighbours on the same basis.

Households in ZIP 76028 earn a median of $100,125 a year, 27.5% above 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 7.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 76028 is valued at $294,500, 2.9% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,691 a month, 20.3% above the national figure, or roughly $20,292 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.3% 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. 76.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

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.

ZIP 76028 is tabulated inside Johnson County, Texas, one of 11 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 76028 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 76028 reports a median household income of $100,125, 39% above the $72,184 county median, and 47% above the $68,103 typical TX ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $294,500, 29% above the county figure and 51% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,691 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

Texas charges 6.25% statewide, and local governments overlapping 76028 may add county, city or special-district levies on top. We publish the state floor for this ZIP rather than guessing a combined figure, because ZIP boundaries and taxing-district boundaries were drawn for different purposes and do not line up.

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 76028 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.
