The zip code 78379 in Riviera, Texas, has undergone significant demographic changes between 2013 and 2022. As of 2022, the area is classified as a "Hispanic Majority" with 76% Hispanic population and 22% White population. This represents a transition from the 2013 composition, which showed 60% Hispanic and 37% White populations. The shift indicates a "Transitional Community" trend with consistent growth in the Hispanic population and decline in the White population.

The demographic changes coincided with economic growth in the area. The median income increased from $62,702 in 2013 to $65,150 in 2022, with a peak of $76,230 in 2021. This suggests that the increasing Hispanic majority did not negatively impact the area's economic status and may have contributed to its growth. The population also grew significantly, rising from 1,478 in 2013 to 2,067 in 2022, with a notable increase between 2020 and 2022.

The demographic shift in Riviera aligns with broader trends observed in Texas and the Southwest United States, where Hispanic populations have been growing rapidly. However, the extent of the shift in this zip code is more pronounced than in many other areas. The economic growth alongside this demographic change is noteworthy, as it challenges some stereotypes about the economic impact of changing racial compositions.
