Eldorado, TX (ZIP 76936) sits in Schleicher County. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: Health Insurance comes in above the national average at 21.9%. NCES lists 3 schools serving the area, 3 non-charter. 2 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $8,460. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $69,772, well above the ~$45K national average per return. FDIC counts just 1 bank branch in this ZIP (Summary of Deposits, 2024) — residents likely lean on neighboring ZIPs or online banking for most services. CDC's Social Vulnerability Index places this ZIP in the 77th percentile nationally — a highly vulnerable community profile. The most recent FEMA disaster declaration here was flood-related (SEVERE STORMS, STRAIGHT-LINE WINDS, AND FLOODING, 2025). 23.1% of residents under 65 lack health insurance per the 2025 County Health Rankings — a notable access gap.

New residents arriving here predominantly come from Tom Green County, TX (IRS SOI Migration, 2022-2023). Healthcare access is the area's quieter strength; school options sit on the lighter side, so families may find themselves looking at districts a few ZIPs over. Notable: median household income $53,774, fair market rent of $970 for a two-bedroom, and a median home value of $96,700. Every figure on this page links to its underlying federal dataset with a retrieval date so you can audit the freshness yourself.
