What the Numbers Say About Kaufman
Kaufman, Texas has 48 ACA marketplace plans offered by 3 issuers for plan year 2026. The average Silver-tier premium comes in at $712/mo for a 27-year-old non-tobacco user, with the lowest Silver at $578 and the highest at $847.

Year-over-year, average premiums in Kaufman shifted by +40.0%, a signal of how local issuer pricing and risk-pool dynamics are trending.
