The latest county-level Zillow ZORI is $1,639 per month in 2026-06. It is a typical asking-rent index across rental types—not an arithmetic average, signed lease or quote for one property.

Zillow asking rent, ACS gross rent and HUD FMR describe different housing universes. They remain separate and no metro, city or neighboring-county value replaces missing county evidence.Zillow pulled 2026-07-26 · HUD pulled 2026-07-26
Everything here joins on the county FIPS code, so each figure comes from the agency that publishes it with no name matching in between.
Zillow estimates a current home value. FHFA tracks repeat mortgage transactions. Their growth rates should be read side by side, not averaged.
Survey source: Census ACS 5-year — county housing value, tenure and stock · ACS 2024 5-year · pulled 2026-07-30. These values describe different housing universes and are not combined into gross yield.
Workplace source: BLS QCEW — county employment and wages · annual county employment and wages 2021-2025; latest 2025 vs 2024 · pulled 2026-08-02. QCEW counts covered jobs located in the county, not employed residents or the metro score’s CES/LAUS series.
BEA per-capita personal income divides all personal income by the county population. It is broader than wages, but it is not household income or a measure of what renters can afford.
HUD CHAS separates renter households by income relative to local HAMFI. Moderate burden means housing costs above 30% through 50% of income; severe burden means more than 50%.
These Apartment List observations match the exact county Census code 48439. They are kept separate from Zillow asking rent, Census occupied-home rent and wider metro measures.

Tarrant County’s tension is income against carrying-cost and resale uncertainty. Landlords should investigate property expenses and rent comps; buyers relying on resale or untested rent growth should be cautious. Zillow’s 2026-06 county median value was $326,127 and median asking rent $1,639 monthly, producing the supplied 6.03% gross yield before costs. HUD’s two-bedroom FMR is a payment standard, not market asking rent or a yield input.
Carrying costs are central: the effective property-tax rate is 1.65%, before insurance, repairs, vacancy and financing costs, which are not published. Zillow’s county value fell 1.56% year over year in its June observation, whereas FHFA’s 2025 annual repeat-transaction HPI rose 0.46%. These results are differently dated and measured; FHFA is not a home value, and the two rates cannot be combined.
Realtor.com MLS evidence shows active listings fell year over year, but marketing took a median 47 days and 25.78% of listings had price reductions. These are visible supply, marketing-time and seller-concession measures, not closed-sale prices or buyer demand alone. Tax-return household migration was net positive by 2,120, while inbound movers’ average AGI was $3,304 below outbound movers’; that mix does not establish stronger purchasing capacity. Investor purchase mortgages were 2,166 of 23,374 purchases, or 9.27%; this signals competition but not buyer type, location or hold period.
Inland flood is dominant; modeled expected annual climate loss equals 0.13% of building value, not a parcel-specific flood determination. QCEW annual covered workplace jobs and wages rose, but do not measure resident employment or forecast demand; trade, transportation and utilities is only the largest disclosed private supersector. Missing neighborhood closed-sale comps, unit-specific rent history, insurance and flood-zone/mitigation data, operating expenses, financing terms and property condition prevent a net-yield, resale-liquidity or property-level hazard conclusion.
This view uses 12 direct Zillow ZIP markets matched to Census ZCTAs. Each ZIP is assigned by its largest HUD residential county share; this is not an exhaustive county inventory.
Within the 12 selected direct-evidence ZIP/ZCTA matches, Zillow’s June 2026 ZORI—a typical observed asking-rent index—runs from $1,187 in 76132 to $2,107 in 76244, a $920 spread, with a $1,455 median. That selected spread brackets the county’s $1,639 ZORI rather than supplying a single countywide lease quote. The decision question is not simply which label has the lowest index; it is whether the currently observed asking-rent range, a household budget, and the availability conditions at a particular unit can be reconciled. Use the span to set an initial search band, then test specific units against recurring, not merely advertised, housing costs rather than treating any ZIP label as a property-level price category.
Do not combine the series: ACS 2024 five-year ZCTA survey estimates place median gross rent from $1,269 to $2,024 among the shown matches. These survey estimates do not substitute for June ZORI. Separately, FY2026 HUD two-bedroom FMR is an administrative standard ranging from $1,931 to $2,330. The direct ZORI-to-FMR comparison spans 61.5% to 109.1%. It shows how the rent index sits against HUD’s bedroom-specific benchmark, not whether a listing qualifies for any program or whether either measure is a tenant’s actual contract rent.
Affordability pressure remains visible even where rent indices differ. In the ACS ZCTAs, the rent-burden share at 30% or more of income ranges from 43.2% to 63.8%, while ACS vacancy estimates range from 5.0% to 13.1%. These are separate screening indicators: a lower burden share does not guarantee a vacant suitable unit, and a higher vacancy rate does not establish unit availability or a negotiable price. Income screens add another view. In 76010, the ZORI-based annual income screen is $51,840, versus $45,466 median household income. That ACS income estimate is not renter-specific and cannot establish any household’s qualification.
Coverage and crosswalk constraints limit how far this comparison can travel. The view shows 12 ZIP/ZCTA matches out of 57 eligible matches and covers 117,931 renter households; it is selected direct evidence, not an inventory of the county or its smaller areas. ZIP display assignment follows the largest HUD residential-address share, although ZIPs can cross county lines. Census ZCTAs are statistical areas rather than USPS delivery ZIPs, so ACS boundaries and delivery areas need not align. Before acting, verify the exact address, unit bedroom count, advertised rent, mandatory and optional fees, utility treatment, lease term, availability date, and any program or income rules; compare those unit facts only with the applicable measure.

Yes. It reports a separate median asking rent; HUD FMR remains a payment standard and should not replace market rent in yield analysis.
No. They describe MLS listing supply, marketing time and seller price reductions, not completed-sale pricing or buyer demand by themselves.
It measures annual covered employment at workplaces in the county and average weekly wages for covered workers; it is not resident employment or a demand forecast.
