Affordability Score: 48/100

Population: 11,423 · 1 ZIP codes

The affordability dashboard for Woodville, TX aggregates Census ACS 5-Year Estimates across 1 ZIP code covering 11,423 residents, then layers in county-level federal data to produce an overall grade of D (48/100). The headline inputs are median household income of $51,594, median home value of $161,400, median rent of $1,098 per month, and 11.6% of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher. These four metrics alone explain most of the variance between city dashboards.

Cross-agency feeds widen the picture beyond Census demographics. HUD publishes a Fair Market Rent for a 2-bedroom in this county at $1,040 per month (studio $787, 1BR $793, 3BR $1,247, 4BR $1,604). Department of Labor data lists infant center-based childcare at $6,708 per year, consuming 13% of the local median household income.

Reading the overall grade requires reading all seven dimensions together. The score weights Income 20%, Safety 20%, Housing 15%, Rent 15%, Education 10%, Commute 10%, and Childcare 10%, with each sub-score benchmarked against national percentiles rather than state averages — so the grade is genuinely comparable across any city in the country. Pressure points are income, education, commute. Unemployment currently reads 8.8% and poverty 24.8% — numbers worth keeping alongside the headline grade.
