Methodology

Source:: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, 2024
Measure: Median Gross Rent, ranked highest first across ZIP codes in Caldwell, Travis, TX (50 ranked in total).
How the headline figure is computed: 44 of 50 ranked units are at or above $1,500. The same computation on the 2019 ACS 5-year estimates gives 24.5%.
Universe: Places below a 5,000-resident floor are excluded so a median computed on a handful of households cannot top the ranking.
Vintage: 2024
