In the Texas Panhandle, Gray County is centered on Pampa, its county seat and largest town. Established in 1876, the county developed with oil, natural gas, and ranching. Today, it is largely rural with a strong small-town hub in Pampa, which offers schools, a hospital, and retail. Housing includes modest bungalows, brick ranchers, and some newer homes. Amarillo is about 55 miles west, providing larger amenities. Home prices are affordable, averaging $110,000–$190,000, while land trades $1,500–$3,500 per acre. Buyers are often looking for budget-friendly housing or agricultural tracts.
