Household Median Income by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Texas

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex exhibits a pronounced concentration of high-income zip codes exceeding $125,000, with bright yellow clusters in suburban areas like Southlake, Frisco, and Plano, while central Dallas contains noticeably lower-income pockets. The Texas-Mexico border region, particularly the Rio Grande Valley around McAllen, Laredo, and Brownsville, represents the state's most persistent low-income corridor, with median household incomes frequently below $30,000—creating a stark contrast with the affluent suburban rings around Austin, Houston, and San Antonio. West Texas displays a mixed but generally moderate-income pattern, with gray (no data) areas reflecting the region's sparse population, while the Permian Basin energy corridor around Midland-Odessa shows elevated incomes relative to surrounding rural zip codes.
