Dimmit County, TX Property Records & Statistics
Dimmit County has a median rent of $680, below the Texas median of $874 and the national $840.25. Renter-occupied housing is 26.63% of occupied homes, a bit above the state's 24.06% and the national 21.81%, so rentals play a somewhat larger role here than in a typical Texas county.
The median home value of $71,300 is roughly half the state's $130,900 and far under the national $173,750. The median property tax rate of 0.96% is lower than the Texas rate of 1.23% but higher than the national 0.74%, which means taxes are modest in dollars because home values are low.
Incomes are the main challenge. The median household income is $28,438, less than half the state's $60,132 and the national $65,108. The unemployment rate of 5.54% is also well above the state's 2.72% and the nation's 2.87%.
Taken together, the figures show an affordable county with low home prices and moderate taxes, but with limited household income and higher unemployment. Housing is cheap in absolute terms, though it can still be a stretch for households earning the local median.
