Housing Owner-Occupied % of Units, by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Texas

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Owner-occupancy rates across Texas display a clear urban-rural divide, with major metropolitan cores—particularly Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, and Austin—exhibiting concentrated clusters of deep purple and dark teal zip codes below 50%, reflecting high renter populations in city centers. The rural Panhandle, West Texas, and areas between metro regions consistently register the highest owner-occupancy rates at 80–90%, appearing in bright yellow and lime green. The border region along the Rio Grande shows notably mixed patterns, with several zip codes dipping into the lower ranges alongside pockets of moderate ownership, suggesting varied housing market dynamics influenced by proximity to the border and localized economic conditions.
