Camelot, a neighborhood in Garland, Texas, has undergone significant demographic changes from 2013 to 2022. The area transitioned from a White Majority to a High Diversity neighborhood. In 2013, the white population comprised 48% of the total. By 2022, this percentage decreased to 36%, with no racial group exceeding 40% of the population. The Hispanic population increased from 22% in 2013 to 29% in 2020, before decreasing to 24% in 2022. Asian and Black populations also saw increases during this period.
The neighborhood's population fluctuated over the decade. It grew from 4,731 in 2013 to 5,152 in 2018, then declined consistently to 3,787 in 2022. This population decrease coincided with the period of highest diversity. The median income in Camelot showed variability without a clear correlation to the increasing diversity. From 2013 to 2016, the income remained relatively stable between $70,000 and $75,000. In 2017, it declined sharply to $62,538, then recovered and grew to $78,192 by 2020. A significant spike to $98,490 occurred in 2021, followed by a return to $73,124 in 2022.
The trend towards increased diversity in Camelot aligns with broader national trends of growing diversity in suburban areas. The recent population decline, however, is atypical and may require further investigation into local factors such as housing market changes, economic shifts, or migration patterns specific to Garland or the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. The median income fluctuations, particularly the sharp increase in 2021 followed by a decrease in 2022, could reflect broader economic volatility related to the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath.
Camelot's demographic evolution offers insights into the complex interplay between demographic shifts and economic conditions in evolving suburban communities. The neighborhood's transition from a White Majority to High Diversity reflects broader national trends, but its declining population and income volatility suggest unique local factors at play. These changes may provide valuable data for understanding the dynamics of suburban demographic shifts and their economic implications.
