What stands out in Rosenberg

Data from Polco GPAL
Standouts compare Rosenberg with communities in Texas or of similar population size. Surprises are where the measured figure was unusually far from what Polco's model expected. Each fact gives its year; public data runs one to two years behind.

In 2024, Rosenberg's children in poverty was 30.4%; Polco's model expected 21.5%. It fell short of expectations.
