Housing & Quality of Life
WHY DUMAS
A place worth putting down roots
Dumas has seen steady, healthy population growth over the past decade. New single-family homes are being built at an average of two per month, and two large apartment complexes have been added to meet growing rental demand. A significant transient worker population has also driven creative extended-stay lodging development across the city.
With a cost of living well below the national average and a tight-knit community, Dumas is an easy place for employees and families to settle in — and stay.
