$1,361 per resident in 2022: more than 71% of them
Flower Mound’s day-to-day spending in 2022 ($1,361 per resident, hospital and utilities left out) against 17 Texas cities of 50,000–99,999 that don’t run their own schools: the median was $1,183, and the middle half spent $1,043–$1,401. Flower Mound spent more than 71% of them.
Includes sewer and trash ($3.7 million), as the Census Bureau counts them. Later years come from a Census sample, so the comparison stays on 2022. How Town Hall compares budgets →

Day-to-day spending by fiscal year
Per resident: 2022: $1,361 · 2023: $1,359. Per resident it went from $1,361 to $1,359 (down 0%), partly because the Census population behind it changed from 81,482 to 77,243.

Building projects, interest and enterprises (hospital, utilities) are left out, so a big construction year doesn’t read as growth.
