Questions
How many funeral homes are in Texas?
Texas has 1,922 funeral homes on map listings as of September 2026. 213 of them (11%) are chain locations. The listings count funeral homes, mortuaries and cremation services. Official counts show 982 businesses with payroll classed as funeral homes and funeral services in 2023, down 1.3% from 2019.
How much do households in Texas spend on funerals?
About $1.3B a year, or $121 per household. That is 15% below the U.S. average (an index of 85, where 100 is the U.S. average). Spread across the 1,922 funeral homes on map listings, it comes to $693K per home. It is estimated from the incomes of the 10,992,816 households in Texas and national spending patterns by income.
How does Texas compare with the U.S. for funeral homes?
Texas has 1.7 funeral homes per 10,000 households, 19% below the U.S. rate of 2.1. Spending per home is $693K, 2% above the U.S. figure of $679K. At the national ratio of funeral homes to household spending, Texas would have about 1,962, against 1,922 on map listings. There is one business with payroll in the industry for every 11,194 households, against one for every 8,510 across the U.S. The official count fell 1.3% from 2019 to 2023, against −1.7% for the U.S.
Which market in Texas has the highest market score for funeral homes?
Among 26 scored metro areas in or partly in Texas, the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos metro area scores highest, at 74 (upper middle). Among 19 scored small-town markets in or partly in Texas, the Brenham area scores highest, at 82 (high). Among 97 scored counties in Texas, Wood County scores highest, at 87 (high). Scores compare each market with others of its kind across the U.S.
What is the Groundwork market score?
The Groundwork market score runs from 0 to 100 and compares a market with others of its kind for one business type: states with states, metro areas with metro areas, small-town markets and counties with their own. It weighs household spending per competitor (35%), households per business with payroll (25%), population growth (20%) and spending power (20%), each ranked against those peers. A higher score means that, taken together, the market has more household spending and more households for each business already there, faster population growth and more spending per household than similar markets. It describes a market, not any one site or deal. Texas scores 61 for funeral homes (upper middle), #18 of the 50 states and DC.
How can I see the market around a specific site?
Run a Groundwork site report on an address in Texas. It maps the funeral homes on map listings near the site and sizes the households and spending within the distance you choose. New accounts get 10 actions over 3 days, no card.
