The expansion-phase market in 79605 posted values that rose 8.9% over the year, and 13% higher over three years, at 72/100 phase confidence. Rising prices can mask pockets of distress, where per-parcel scoring earns its keep.

Median household income is $59,565, below the U.S. median near $78,000. Around 46% of renters are cost-burdened. 13.9% of residents fall below the poverty threshold. The ZIP holds roughly 12,458 housing units. Educational attainment sits at 25% bachelor's-or-above. DLRadar's demographic-stress index for the area reads 31/100.

On balance 79605 is mixed, rewarding parcel-by-parcel screening over broad assumptions. 79605 has no individual parcels listed at present; the signals above still come from the same audited public sources used nationwide.

No ZIP is too small to score: 79605 passes through the same foreclosure, tax, mortgage and bank-stress model as any major-metro ZIP, so its 18/100 composite is a like-for-like number rather than an isolated estimate. Nothing here is interpolated — where a source is thin for 79605, DLRadar leaves it blank rather than guessing, and re-scores as new records post.

Behind 79605's composite sit distinct signals (foreclosure, mortgage, tax-lien, lender and structural), each scored on its own before rolling up, so two ZIPs with the same total can describe very different situations on the ground. In workflow terms, 79605 is a go/no-go - the score says whether to drill in, then DLRadar carries you to parcels, capital and closing.
