Property tax · $803/mo 1.58% of value a year — the ACS 2020-2024 median bill over the median home value for Dallas County, TX
Insurance & upkeep · $651/mo insurance, maintenance and repairs together, from the BLS Consumer Expenditure Survey — the national figure for mortgaged homeowners, scaled to this market's home value. BLS publishes the three bundled and they cannot be split.
Both are priced off the same month's home value, so they rise with the market. Neither is a quote — a specific home's bill depends on its assessment, its age and its insurer.

What it’s like
The place. Coppell is a city in Dallas County whose households earn well above the county's typical income, and where far fewer people live below the poverty line than you might expect. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and a large majority of adults hold a four-year degree. The population sits somewhat older than the national middle, and home values and rents run high.
Work. Residents work mainly in professional and business services, in schools, hospitals and social care, in banks, insurance and property, and in shops. Some of the largest workplaces in Coppell are Amazon, which runs warehousing and storage, Coppell ISD, the school district, and FedEx Supply Chain Distribution System, a warehousing and distribution operation. Commutes are fairly ordinary in length, and a good number of people work from home.
Things to do. Texas Stadium is a short drive away, and farther afield are the Dallas Museum of Art and the George W. Bush Presidential Center, both museums, plus Six Flags Over Texas, an amusement park. Winters are cool and mild, with little or no snow, and summers turn hot by August. Rain falls through the year in moderate amounts.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Coppell’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
