Blanco is a very small city located in the state of Texas. With a population of 2,005 people and two associated neighborhoods, Blanco is the 699th largest community in Texas. Blanco has seen a significant amount of newer housing growth in recent years. Quite often, new home construction is the result of new residents moving in who are middle class or wealthier, attracted by jobs, a healthy local economy, or other amenities as they leave nearby or far away areas for greener pastures. This seems to be the case in Blanco, where the median household income is $67,292.00.

Blanco real estate is some of the most expensive in Texas, although Blanco house values don't compare to the most expensive real estate in the U.S.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 12.22% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

As is often the case in a small city, Blanco doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
