Married Couple (% of all Households) by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Texas

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The Texas Panhandle and parts of the northern High Plains consistently display married-couple household rates above 70%, forming one of the state's most prominent high-value clusters, while the southern tip along the Rio Grande Valley and portions of the South Texas border region show markedly lower rates, frequently falling below 30%. Major metropolitan cores—particularly visible around Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, and Austin—exhibit darker concentrations indicating lower married-couple percentages, contrasting sharply with their surrounding suburban zip codes that trend toward 60–80%. Rural West Texas presents a more heterogeneous pattern with pockets of both high and low values, suggesting significant demographic variation even within sparsely populated areas.
