Texas master-planned communities are among the largest single-board markets in the country for bulk internet and fiber. A single property owners association can govern thousands of lots, and the decision to bring in a preferred or exclusive provider is made by its board. This page shows how many Texas associations are large enough for a bulk agreement, where they are concentrated, and how board contacts can be delivered for a provider’s footprint.
How Many Texas Associations Have 150 or More Units?
The figures below were taken from the HOA Contact Lists database on September 29, 2026. Only associations with at least one current, verified board member contact are counted.
| Community size | Associations | Board contacts |
|---|---|---|
| 150 to 249 units | 1,345 | 3,994 |
| 250 to 499 units | 1,372 | 4,101 |
| 500 to 999 units | 660 | 1,998 |
| 1,000 units or more | 543 | 1,723 |
| Total, 150+ units | 3,920 | 11,816 |
More than 540 Texas associations govern 1,000 or more units. That is a far higher share of very large communities than in Florida, which reflects how Texas suburbs are developed: large master-planned communities with one master association rather than many small condominiums.
HOAs, POAs and Condos
Texas associations are registered under several names. Of the Texas associations with 150 or more units, 1,645 are recorded as homeowners associations, 1,486 as property owners associations and 383 as condominium associations, with 406 not yet classified. For a broadband provider, POAs and HOAs work the same way: both are governed by an elected board acting under the community’s dedicatory instruments, and both are included in every search.
Whether a board can sign a bulk or exclusive service agreement without an owner vote depends on the community’s declaration and bylaws. The governing documents of each target community should be reviewed with counsel before terms are proposed.
Where the Large Texas Communities Are
| County | Associations (150+ units) | Board contacts |
|---|---|---|
| Harris | 782 | 2,184 |
| Dallas | 642 | 2,062 |
| Collin | 555 | 1,754 |
| Travis | 468 | 1,485 |
| Bexar | 424 | 1,308 |
| Tarrant | 138 | 437 |
| Williamson | 86 | 228 |
| Montgomery | 84 | 258 |
| Hidalgo | 78 | 188 |
| Denton | 56 | 171 |
| Fort Bend | 41 | 111 |
Five counties (Harris, Dallas, Collin, Travis and Bexar) hold about seven in ten of the state’s large associations, so most fiber footprints in the Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio metros are well covered.
How Lists Are Cut for Fiber Providers
- Footprint. Associations are matched on the community’s ZIP code or county, not on where a board member lives.
- Unit floor. A minimum community size, commonly 150 units, is applied before contacts are counted.
- Board roles and caps. All officers or only the signing officers, with an optional cap per association.
- New developments. Recurring delta files add newly formed associations that meet the criteria, which is where developer-controlled boards are still choosing providers.
A free count for any footprint can be requested at support@hoacontactlists.com. The same filters are available in the HOA Contact Lists search, where new accounts receive 5 free credits.
What a signed association contract could be worth, once connect and win rates are factored in, can be estimated with the free HOA Vendor Revenue Calculator.
