Jersey Village is about 14 miles from the Census center point for Houston in a straight line and covers 3.476 square miles of land (Census 2024 Gazetteer internal points and land area, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2024_Gazetteer/, checked 2026-10-19).
Median household income in Jersey Village is $79,750 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US4837612, checked 2026-10-19); many state and utility heat pump rebate programs set higher incentive tiers for income-qualifying households, so the household income on the application, not the town median, decides which level applies.
46% of Jersey Village homes are single-family detached, 4% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 49% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US4837612, checked 2026-10-19).
With 49% of Jersey Village homes in buildings of five or more units and 46% detached, the condo association usually decides where outdoor units can go, so that approval comes before the quote. With 55% of Jersey Village homes rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4837612, checked 2026-10-19), the landlord signs the quote in many of them.
Jersey Village has 11 points fewer detached houses than Harris County overall (57%) and 17 points more five-plus-unit buildings than the county's 32% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US48201, checked 2026-10-19).

Of the 3,343 occupied homes in Jersey Village, 41% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 58% with electricity and 0% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US4837612, checked 2026-10-19).
Electricity already heats 58% of Jersey Village homes, ahead of gas at 41%, and a home on electric baseboard sees the biggest bill change from a heat pump because it replaces resistance heat one for one.
Jersey Village has about the Harris County oil share of 0% and 3 points more electric heat than the county's 55% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US48201, checked 2026-10-19).

That 29F figure is the Harris County cold-day number a Jersey Village heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 29F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Jersey Village home has 5.3 rooms and was built around 1991, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
