Texas, week of October 12, 2026

Westwood Shores, Texas has about 1,466 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.

A typical home is worth about $165,900.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Trinity County is $1,079 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Westwood Shores. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

Texas's prices sit at 97.1 when the U.S. average is 100. This place is not in a metro area with its own index, so this is the state number from BEA for 2024.

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

For the week of October 12, 2026, EIA's all-grades gasoline price in Texas was $3.889 a gallon. At 12,000 miles a year and 25 mpg, the index counts that as $1,866.72 a year. Those miles are our standard, not a Census figure, and every town in Texas shares this price.
