ZIP 76934 in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

ZIP 76934 is a small town in Tom Green County, Texas, with 1,172 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1420 of 1,989 ranked by population — larger than 28% of them. The median age here is 38.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. 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 ZIP 76934 earn a median of $50,385 a year, 35.8% 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 29.9% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 76934 is valued at $244,300, 19.5% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 94.3% 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.

The Census withheld gross rent for ZIP 76934 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.

Reading ZIP 76934 in context

How 76934 sits inside Tom Green County and Texas.

ZIP 76934 is tabulated inside Tom Green County, Texas, one of 15 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 1,989 across Texas. Fewer than 2,500 people are counted here, so the ZIP behaves like a village delivery route rather than a neighbourhood. 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 76934 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 76934 reports a median household income of $50,385, 38% below the $80,631 county median, and 26% below the $68,103 typical TX ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $244,300, 9% above the county figure and 25% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at not published 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 76934 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 76934 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.
