Houston, TX (ZIP 77077) draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: Depression comes in below the national average at 19.2%. NCES lists 7 schools serving the area, 7 non-charter. 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 $69,782, fair market rent of $1,920 for a two-bedroom, and a median home value of $352,900. Every figure on this page links to its underlying federal dataset with a retrieval date so you can audit the freshness yourself.
The two domains pull in different directions. Healthcare access reads strong, but the on-paper school count is on the lighter side — that’s less a quality signal and more a density one. Households here often look at districts a few ZIPs over for school choice while keeping their providers local.
- Fair market rent for a two-bedroom ($1,920/month, HUD SAFMR) represents 33% of median household income ($69,782, Census ACS) — above the 30% affordability threshold commonly used by housing experts.
- As a predominantly renter community (65% of occupied units, Census ACS), the 7 schools mapped here by NCES are especially relevant for families weighing the neighborhood.
One concrete reading worth keeping: Depression prevalence sits lower the national rate at 19.2%. Each figure on this page links to the original federal dataset with its retrieval date — this synthesis is a reading, not a substitute for the underlying records.
