Deep in the Trans-Pecos region, Terrell County is anchored by Sanderson, its county seat. Established in 1905, it has always been a ranching county, with vast, rugged desert terrain. Today, it remains extremely rural, with fewer than 1,000 residents. Housing stock is sparse—small homes, ranch houses, and mobile units dominate. Larger services are far away: Del Rio (120 miles southeast) and Fort Stockton (110 miles north). Homes are inexpensive, usually $80,000–$140,000, while ranchland sells for $1,000–$3,000 per acre. Buyers are typically hunters, ranchers, and investors seeking remote acreage in West Texas.
