Scurry County, TX Property Records & Statistics
Scurry County has a median rent of $923, above the Texas median of $874 and the national figure of $840.25. Only 15.13% of housing is renter-occupied, compared with 24.06% statewide and 21.81% nationally, so renters are a smaller part of the market and most residents own their homes.
The median home value is $120,200, below the state median of $130,900 and well under the national median of $173,750. Property taxes are comparatively heavy: the median rate of 1.46% exceeds the Texas rate of 1.23% and is roughly double the national rate of 0.74%. Homes are inexpensive, but owners pay a large share of value in tax each year.
The median household income is $65,382, higher than the state's $60,132 and just above the national $65,108. That income level, paired with lower home values, gives residents relatively good purchasing power for housing. Unemployment is 2.69%, below both the Texas rate of 2.72% and the national rate of 2.87%, which indicates a stable local labor market.
In short, Scurry County offers affordable homes, strong incomes, and low unemployment, balanced by a high property tax rate and rents above the state median.
