Samnorwood, Texas Demographics & Population 2026

A note before these figures: with a population of 27, Samnorwood's ACS estimates come from a small number of survey responses and carry wide margins of error. Individual percentages below — particularly rates that round to 0% or 100% — are approximations, not precise measurements. See data.census.gov for the published margins of error.

Age Demographics

Economy, Income & Housing

The ACS records no residents below the poverty line in Samnorwood. In a community this small the estimate rests on very few survey responses, so it should be read as an absence of measurement rather than a measured absence of poverty. The survey records no unemployed residents in Samnorwood, which reflects the size of the sample rather than a labor market without joblessness. 100.0% of occupied housing units are owner-occupied. This homeownership rate is 60% higher than the state average of 62.6%.

Race & Ethnicity

Every resident counted in Samnorwood was recorded as White (non-Hispanic). A figure of exactly 100.0% reflects a survey sample too small to capture the community's full composition rather than a precise measurement.

Education

55.6% of residents aged 25 and older hold a bachelor's degree or higher. This places Samnorwood in the top 10% of all cities in the state for educational attainment.

No surveyed resident aged 25 or older reported leaving school before earning a high school diploma, though a rate of exactly 100% reflects the limits of a small sample.
