Dallas / White Settlement
White Settlement has 18,150 residents (give or take 25) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US4878544, checked 2026-10-19), about 3,603 people per square mile.
White Settlement is about 40 miles from the Census center point for Dallas in a straight line and covers 5.037 square miles of land (Census 2024 Gazetteer internal points and land area, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2024_Gazetteer/, checked 2026-10-19).
3,603 people per square mile puts White Settlement in suburban density, where the outdoor unit usually sits in a side yard and the noise is not an issue for neighbors.
Of the 6,509 occupied homes in White Settlement, 24% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 74% with electricity and 2% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US4878544, checked 2026-10-19).
Electricity already heats 74% of White Settlement homes, ahead of gas at 24%, and a home on electric baseboard sees the biggest bill change from a heat pump because it replaces resistance heat one for one.
White Settlement has about the Tarrant County oil share of 0% and 7 points more electric heat than the county's 67% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US48439, checked 2026-10-19).
White Settlement has 7,485 housing units, 1% built before 1940 and 61% before 1980, with 21% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4878544, checked 2026-10-19).
White Settlement has 15 points fewer homes built after 2000 than the county's 36% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US48439, checked 2026-10-19).
The median White Settlement home was built in 1973 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US4878544, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US4878544, checked 2026-10-19).
66% of White Settlement homes are single-family detached, 16% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 14% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US4878544, checked 2026-10-19).
39% of White Settlement homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4878544, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 66% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.
White Settlement has 10 points fewer five-plus-unit buildings than the county's 24% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US48439, checked 2026-10-19).
61% of White Settlement homes were built before 1980 and only 21% in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4878544, checked 2026-10-19), so most of the stock predates modern insulation codes; the installer's heat-loss calculation, not a square-footage rule, decides the tonnage.
No electric utility is on file for White Settlement on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
Median household income in White Settlement is $56,784 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US4878544, checked 2026-10-19); many state and utility heat pump rebate programs set higher incentive tiers for income-qualifying households, so the household income on the application, not the town median, decides which level applies.
Heating design temperature: 22F.

That 22F figure is the Tarrant County cold-day number a White Settlement heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 22F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median White Settlement home has 5 rooms and was built around 1973, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
