Population Non-Hispanic Black % by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Texas

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The highest concentrations of Non-Hispanic Black population in Texas cluster prominently in the Dallas-Fort Worth and Houston metropolitan areas, where several zip codes exceed 40-50%, with pockets reaching near or above 80%. East Texas, stretching from the DFW metroplex southeastward toward Beaumont-Port Arthur, forms a broad corridor of elevated percentages (15-30%), consistent with the historical geography of Black settlement in the region. By contrast, West Texas, the Panhandle, South Texas along the Rio Grande Valley, and the Hill Country remain overwhelmingly low, typically below 5%, reflecting the demographic dominance of Hispanic and non-Hispanic White populations in those areas.
