With under 5,000 residents, Borden County operates more like a single rural community than a typical county. Housing inventory is thin (median home value $105,000) and labor-market data carries unusually wide ACS margins of error. FEMA's National Risk Index ranks Borden County in the bottom 6% nationally for natural-hazard exposure — an underrated factor in long-term housing-cost comparisons.
