High School Graduate (% of Over 25) by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Texas

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The Texas-Mexico border region exhibits consistently low high school graduation rates, with many zip codes in the Rio Grande Valley and El Paso area falling below 60%, reflecting longstanding educational attainment gaps in predominantly Hispanic border communities. The Dallas-Fort Worth and Austin metropolitan areas display sharp intra-urban contrasts, with suburban zip codes reaching above 95% while adjacent urban core areas drop significantly, highlighting socioeconomic segregation within major metros. Rural areas of the Panhandle and West Texas show considerable variability, with pockets of high attainment interspersed among zip codes in the 70-80% range, likely corresponding to differences in agricultural community demographics and economic base.
