Carrizo Springs

Carrizo Creek and the spring-fed terrain that gave Carrizo Springs its name define the setting of Carrizo Springs — water has long concentrated settlement in the semi-arid brush country of Dimmit County. The city is the county seat and remains a commercial and civic centre for the ranching and agricultural lands around it. Surveyor Levi English founded the settlement in 1865; its name recalls carrizo, the Spanish word for the reed that grew near the springs. Carrizo Springs lies inland between San Antonio and the Rio Grande border, away from Texas’s largest urban corridors.
