Granbury leads Texas micropolitan areas in median gross rent at $1,428, according to ALEX Intelligence’s latest analysis of the 2024 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates. This isn’t a sign of unaffordability — it’s a signal of rising demand for rural living with strong infrastructure and community quality. What does a $1,428 median rent in a small Texas town say about where the market is heading? The data reveals that in today’s land and rural real estate markets, desirability is priced in — not just square footage.
