Harris County

According to the 2000 census, 291,000 of the District’s 651,000 constituents reside in Harris County.  The Harris county part of the District includes part or all of the following cities:

Harris County was founded in the late 1830s and has grown to be the largest county by population in Texas with more than 3.4 million residents. Much of southeast Harris County is in District 22 and includes many significant entities, such as NASA’s Johnson Space Center (JSC), Ellington Field, and the Port of Houston’s new Bayport Terminal. It is also home to the  University of Houston - Clear Lake and San Jacinto College. The Harris County part of District 22 also includes all or part of several major cities such as Houston, Deer Park, and Pasadena. 

According to 2000 Census data, there were 1,205,516 households, the average household size was 2.79 and the average family size was 3.38. The median income for a household in the county was $42,598, and the median income for a family was $49,004. The per capita income for the county was $21,435. About 12.10% of families and 14.97% of the population were below the poverty line, including 19.60% of those under age 18 and 12.20% of those age 65 or over.

I am proud to represent such a significant part of Southeast Texas.
