Port Lavaca refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country more than replaces them. Head count stayed flat all the same — arriving households are smaller (1.82 people on average) than the ones leaving (1.85), so the city gained homes without gaining residents.
Households arriving from another state report $65,694 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Texas report $63,399. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.
How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Calhoun County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 58% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
