Recently, the Washington Post published a study on the smartest states in America.
In the categories of SAT scores and college graduation rate, Texas ranked as the 39th dumbest state in America, a little smarter than New Mexico, but dumber than Georgia.

We’ll be looking at high school completion rates rather than college-related metrics of smartness, for the sake of figuring out which cities in Texas are contributing to the stupidity in the state more than the rest.

After crunching the numbers, we came up with this list of the ten dumbest cities in the Lone Star State:

  1. Mathis
  2. Elsa (Photos)
  3. San Diego
  4. Robstown (Photos)
  5. Yoakum (Photos)
  6. Sinton
  7. Bellmead (Photos)
  8. Sullivan City
  9. Marlin (Photos)
  10. Haskell (Photos)

How we determined the dumbest cities in the Lone Star State

We realize that formal education isn’t everything when it comes to being smart, but on the other hand not knowing the difference between they’re, their, and there is always going to make you look pretty stupid.

So we narrowed down our criteria to focus both on a city’s educational opportunities and what percentage of the population takes advantage of those opportunities.

In short, we came up with these criteria to determine the dumbest cities in Texas:

  • % of city’s population with less than a high school education (Age 25+)
  • % of high school drop outs (Ages 16-19)

Note: We only looked at cities with populations greater than 2,000, leaving us 457 cities in Texas to rank. We also looked at the graduation rates of the entire population, not the current rates for high schoolers.

1. Mathis

Dumbest Texas

Source: Public Domain

Population: 2,964
Adults Without High School Diploma: 44.9%
Teenage High School Drop Outs: 17.8%

When you look at the numbers, Mathis, a little city outside of Corpus Christi, is the dumbest city in the state of Texas.

Almost 45% of the city doesn’t even have a high school degree by the age of 25 years old. Surprisingly, that’s only the 15th lowest rate in the state. Meaning there are 14 ‘dumber’ adult populations in Texas.

When you factor in the 18% teenage dropout rate, that adds up to a population that’s highly uneducated, from the top down.

2. Elsa

Dumbest Texas

Source: Wikipedia User |

Population: 3,467
Adults Without High School Diploma: 48.5%
Teenage High School Drop Outs: 14.8%
Elsa is a teeny place just outside of Brownsville, where the adult population without a high school diploma is actually closer to 50%, which is the 9th highest rate in Texas.

The kids in Elsa are actually a little smarter than those in Mathis – ‘only’ 15% of the kids ages 16-19 are currently not attending school.

3. San Diego

Dumbest Texas

Source: Public Domain

Population: 3,014
Adults Without High School Diploma: 36.6%
Teenage High School Drop Outs: 24.2%

It’s the teens in San Diego that are really dumbing down the population, which might be a long-term problem at some point if things aren’t handled correctly. Almost a quarter of the high schoolers here aren’t attending high school.

The adult population is far less uneducated than those in Elsa and Mathis. However, when an adult graduation rate of 67% is considered ‘good’, that means Texas has a huge uneducated population on its hands.

4. Robstown

Dumbest Texas

Source: Wikipedia User Larry D. Moore | CC BY-SA 4.0

Population: 6,827
Adults Without High School Diploma: 37.3%
Teenage High School Drop Outs: 18.9%

The Corpus Christi area (and the region near the Mexican border) seems to be the most uneducated population in The Lone Star State. That might not come as a surprise to you.

Both the adults and teens are far above the state average in terms of intelligence levels. That’s setting up this small city for a fate of stupidity that it might not recover from for a generation.

5. Yoakum

Dumbest Texas

Source: Wikipedia User Dana Smith | CC BY 2.0

Population: 3,593
Adults Without High School Diploma: 34.6%
Teenage High School Drop Outs: 25.8%
More than 25% of Yoakum teens have dropped out of high school, which is the 10th highest rate in the state, and one of the highest rates you’ll see in the entire country.

That doesn’t bode well, as the adults are already dumb enough, when you consider than 1 in 3 didn’t get a GED by the age of 25.

Yoakum is just about halfway between San Antonio and Houston.

6. Sinton

Dumbest Texas

Source: Public Domain

Population: 3,497
Adults Without High School Diploma: 40.6%
Teenage High School Drop Outs: 14.7%

Sinton teens are actually a lot closer to the state average when it comes to the drop out rate, but it’s the adults that make this small city outside of Corpus Christi one of the dumbest cities in the state. More than 4 in 10 adults is walking around without even a basic education here.

7. Bellmead

Dumbest Texas

Source: Wikipedia User Hot Furnace | CC BY-SA 4.0

Population: 5,888
Adults Without High School Diploma: 33.7%
Teenage High School Drop Outs: 21.8%

This Waco suburb is in the bottom 10% for adult education levels, and in the bottom 3% for teenage education levels. That puts it far behind the rest of the state when it comes to intelligence levels, and certainly one of the last places in which to start a Book of the Month club.

8. Sullivan City

Dumbest Texas

Source: Public Domain

Population: 2,234
Adults Without High School Diploma: 58.5%
Teenage High School Drop Outs: 10.9%

This is an interesting place. There’s only one other city with more dumb adults in the state of Texas (the border town of Presidio). In Sullivan City (also a border town), nearly 6 in 10 adults has never finished high school.

The interesting thing about Sullivan City is that the kids are actually attending class at a much higher rate than their parents. That gives hope to the border towns of Texas that perhaps the next generation of kids are attempting to better their lives by finishing school.

9. Marlin

Dumbest Texas

Source: Wikipedia User Swinneas | CC BY-SA 3.0

Population: 3,827
Adults Without High School Diploma: 31.9%
Teenage High School Drop Outs: 23.3%

Marlin is just outside of Waco. The educational situation is the opposite of Sullivan City. The adults are twice as smart, but the kids are twice as dumb as they are in Sullivan City. Add it up, and Marlin has one of the least educated populations in the state.

10. Haskell

Dumbest Texas

Source: Wikipedia User CletusDitto | CC BY-SA 3.0

Population: 2,400
Adults Without High School Diploma: 31.5%
Teenage High School Drop Outs: 25.0%

Haskell is the only city on this list that’s not in southern Texas. A short drive north of Abilene, the teens are dropping out at a higher rate than just about every other city in the state. Factor in an already uneducated adult population, and you have a long-term problem here.

Putting a dunce cap on our analysis

If you’re measuring the locations in Texas where there are a high number of teenage dropouts and adults who never received a formal education, this is an accurate list.

Where are the smartest cities in Texas? Fair Oaks Ranch, Bee Cave, Hunters Creek Village, West University Place and Piney Point Village. Fair Oaks Ranch is a San Antonio suburb and Bee Cave is outside of Austin. The last three are Houston ‘burbs.
