A typical home is worth about $190,000.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Harris County is $1,497 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Barrett. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

In the Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands, TX metro area, prices sit at 98.6 when the U.S. average is 100. That is a 2024 BEA index.

Texas does not tax wages. A typical combined sales tax is 8.2% as of January 1, 2026. That mix is statewide, not Barrett's exact store tax.

In July 2026, a typical Texas home paid 15.88¢ per kilowatt-hour. That is a state average from EIA, not Barrett's bill.
