Veterans and benefits in Texas
About 1.54 million veterans live in Texas, using VA's rounded population projection.
At least 682,628 veterans in Texas received VA disability compensation at the end of fiscal year 2025. VA does not publish very small county counts, so the true number is a little higher.

Workload report dated 2026-09-19.
Claims with a Texas address: 75,434 claims pending, 10.2 percent pending more than 125 days.
For claims with a Texas address, VA averaged 71.9 days to complete a claim this fiscal year. Individual claims vary.
Waco regional office: 10,552 claims pending, 12.5 percent pending more than 125 days, averaging 71.0 days pending.
Houston regional office: 9,395 claims pending, 12.2 percent pending more than 125 days, averaging 70.2 days pending.
VA moves claims between offices, so an office's queue can include claims from other states.
Board hearings are mostly virtual, so an attorney does not need to be local.
