Of the 42,950 occupied homes in League City, 57% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 41% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US4841980, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas heats 57% of League City against electricity at 41%, and a cold-climate heat pump sized for this market replaces the gas system outright, so the usual quote is a whole-home install.
League City has about the Galveston County oil share of 0% and 11 points less electric heat than the county's 52% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US48167, checked 2026-10-19).
League City has 44,942 housing units, 1% built before 1940 and 14% before 1980, with 58% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4841980, checked 2026-10-19).
League City has 4 points fewer pre-1940 homes than Galveston County as a whole (5%) and 20 points more homes built after 2000 than the county's 38% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US48167, checked 2026-10-19).
The median League City home was built in 2003 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US4841980, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 6.5 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US4841980, checked 2026-10-19).
77% of League City homes are single-family detached, 2% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 18% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US4841980, checked 2026-10-19).
With 77% detached houses and 2% in small multi-family buildings, a League City quote is usually one or two outdoor units with ducted or ductless heads sized room by room. With 25% of League City homes rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4841980, checked 2026-10-19), the landlord signs the quote in many of them.
League City has 5 points more detached houses than Galveston County overall (72%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US48167, checked 2026-10-19).
58% of League City housing was built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4841980, checked 2026-10-19), and homes that recent usually meet the insulation codes in place at the time, so a heat pump sized to the floor plan lands closer to the real load than it would in an older neighborhood.
No electric utility is on file for League City on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
Median household income in League City is $121,099 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US4841980, 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.
Heating design temperature: 34F. Source: ENERGY STAR Design Temperature Limit Reference Guide (2019 Edition), Galveston County row, 99% heating, PDF pages 115 to 125 of 141 (Revised 11/11/2020), https://www.energystar.gov/sites/default/files/Design%20Temperature%20Limit%20Reference%20Guide%20(2019%20Ed)%20-%20ENERGY%20STAR%20Single-Family%20New%20Homes_Rev11.pdf, fetched 2026-10-19, 99%.
That 34F figure is the Galveston County cold-day number a League City heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 34F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 57% of League City on gas and 41% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median League City home has 6.5 rooms and was built around 2003, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
