AUSTIN (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts) – According to the Texas Comptroller, state sales tax revenue totaled $2.61 billion last month, 13.2 percent less than in May 2019.
That's the steepest year-over-year decline since January 2010.
The majority of May sales tax revenue is based on sales made in April and remitted to the agency in May. Widespread social distancing requirements were in place across much of the state throughout April.
Sales tax is the largest source of state funding for the state budget, accounting for 57 percent of all tax collections, but the effects of the economic slowdown and low oil prices were evident in other sources of revenue in May 2020.
Texas collected the following revenue from other major taxes:
- motor vehicle sales and rental taxes, $265 million, down 38 percent year over year (YOY);
- motor fuel taxes, $221 million, down 30 percent YOY and the steepest drop since 1989;
- natural gas production tax, $31 million, down 76 percent YOY;
- oil production tax, $90 million, down 75 percent YOY, the steepest drop since March 1988, and the lowest monthly amount since July 2010;
- hotel occupancy tax, $8 million, down 86 percent YOY and the steepest drop on record in data going back to 1982; and
- alcoholic beverage taxes, $28 million, down 76 percent YOY and the steepest drop on record in data going back to 1980.
The comptroller extended the due date for franchise tax payments this year from May 15 to July 15, meaning that comparisons to May 2019 collections are uninformative.

COLLEGE STATION (Real Estate Center) – In the week ending May 13, over 122,400 initial unemployment insurance claims were filed in Texas. That brings the total since March 21 to 2.2 million, according to data from the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL).
Unemployment claims fell for the fifth straight week after rebounding on April 18.
"The number of initial claims continue to fall steadily, although the numbers are still worrisome," said Real Estate Center Research Economist Dr. Luis Torres.
Using data from the DOL and the Employment and Training Administration, the Center estimates that from March 21 to May 16 nearly 468,000 seasonally adjusted claims were filed in Dallas-Fort Worth. That is the highest of Texas' major metros.
In Houston, San Antonio, and Austin, an estimated 457,600, 147,600, and 136,600 claims were filed during that time, respectively.
Along the border, an estimated 49,600, 49,200, 22,200, and 13,800 claims were filed in McAllen, El Paso, Brownsville, and Laredo, respectively.
From March 21 to May 16, over 10,300 unemployment claims were filed in College Station-Bryan.
Accommodation and food services, administrative/support/waste management/remediation services, and retail trade represented the sectors with the biggest unemployment claims.
Last month, around 1.05 million Texans left the workforce.
"This has implications for the unemployment rate and future growth potential," said Torres.
Nationwide, 40.7 million unemployment claims have been filed since March 21.

 According to a Center report, the Texas weekly leading index signaled modest economic improvement during the first weeks of May. Most importantly, the index possibly reached a trough during the last week of March and the first week of April, indicating either a stagnant position for the short term or perhaps a slight trend upward. This could mean the worst part of the shock from the COVID-19 shutdown is in the past. However, the index still indicates that a recession will continue into the near future.

COLLEGE STATION (Texas A&M Today) – The specialty crop sector in Texas—consisting primarily of fruits and vegetables—has been one of the agricultural sectors hit hardest by the COVID-19 pandemic, according to Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service economists.
According to a report from the Agricultural and Food Policy Center (AFPC), if the pandemic persists, Texas fruit and vegetable producers could be left without outlets for their highly perishable products and ultimately lose more than $397 million.
Typically, a large fruit and vegetable producer sells about 40 percent of its product to retail grocers, another 40 percent to restaurants and food-service outlets, and the remaining 20 percent to other outlets.
“As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the closure of most restaurants and schools has caused a major reduction in demand for produce," said AgriLife Economist and AFPC Co-Director Joe Outlaw. “The pandemic has also caused significant disruptions to the supply chain and agricultural systems."
Many grocery stores have significantly reduced the variety of items they stock.
Fruit and vegetable producers in South Texas have experienced anywhere between a 20 percent to 50 percent reduction in sales. Additionally, imports of fruits and vegetables from Mexico went down 18 percent in April, indicating low demand for both domestic and imported produce.
Additionally, South Texas' labor shortage has only worsened due to the pandemic, especially as labor is diverted to cleaning, disinfecting, and sanitizing. Some producers have experienced up to a 50 percent reduction in harvesting crews.
While growing conditions in the state's Winter Garden area bode well for most crops already in the ground, pandemic factors will likely continue to affect producer profitability for some time to come.

COLLEGE STATION (Real Estate Center) – In the week ending May 16, nearly 130,800 initial unemployment insurance claims were filed in Texas. That brings the total since March 21 to 2.1 million, according to data from the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL).
Unemployment claims fell for the fourth straight week after rebounding on April 18.
"These are still worrisome unemployment numbers, but there is some hope as the numbers continue to fall," said Real Estate Center Research Economist Dr. Luis Torres.
The Center estimates the unemployment rate across the state could be as high as 18.7 percent in May.
Using data from the DOL and the Employment and Training Administration, the Center estimates that from March 21 to May 9 nearly 439,500 seasonally adjusted claims were filed in Dallas-Fort Worth. That is the highest of Texas' major metros.
In Houston, San Antonio, and Austin, an estimated 425,800, 138,500, and 49,800 claims were filed during that time, respectively.
At the metro level, the Center estimates May's unemployment rate could be 16.4 percent in Houston, 14.4 percent in San Antonio, 14.3 percent in DFW, and 7.1 percent in Austin.
Accommodation and food services, and administrative/support/waste management/remediation services, and retail trade represented the sectors with the biggest unemployment claims.

AUSTIN (Austin Business Journal) – Local home sales saw a double-digit fall in April with COVID-19 and shelter-in-place orders slowing transactions.
Single-family home sales through the Multiple Listing Service decreased 21.6 percent to 2,611, according to the Austin Board of Realtors (ABoR). Consequently, sales dollar volume fell 18.3 percent to $1 billion.
Although sales decreased, homes still spent less time on the market and sold at higher prices than last April. Demand was high enough that the median sales price rose 3.2 year over year to $325,000. Homes also spent nine fewer days on the market for an average of 43 days.
ABoR is anticipating May sales to see a decline because of slow listing activity in April. Active listings fell 7.3 percent to 6,349 last month. New listings dropped 21.1 percent to 3,516, and pending sales fell 25 percent to 2,801.
In Austin proper, home sales fell 33.1 percent to 759, and sales dollar volume dropped 23.9 percent to $387.9 million.

The capital tied for first with several other cities for the most running trails per capita.

The top five cities behind Plano are Boise, Idaho; Tampa, Fla.; Charleston, S.C.; and Lincoln, Neb.

SAN ANTONIO (San Antonio Express-News) – The metro’s housing market is slowing down, but prices are still rising.
The San Antonio Board of Realtors reported that 2,748 homes were sold through the Multiple Listing Service in April, down 8 percent year over year.
Pending sales fell from 3,182 to 2,652.
Still, prices increased 5 percent to $241,500 as inventory tightened to 3.3 months. The Real Estate Center considers six to 6.5 months of inventory a balanced market.
The metro's sales dip was smaller than the drop across Texas. Statewide, the number of homes sold decreased 17.4 percent to 24,795 homes.
