Rice

Rice lies within the Blackland Prairie of north-central Texas, where fertile dark soils and gently rolling farmland shape the landscape. This small Navarro County town sits on Interstate 45, the highway corridor between Dallas and Houston, while Corsicana serves as the county seat to the south. Agriculture has long defined this part of Texas; cotton was especially important to the Blackland Prairie economy. The broader county is also tied to the 1894 Corsicana oil discovery, which launched one of the state’s earliest petroleum booms. Rice’s scale and location reflect the working rural character of the I-45 corridor. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Rice and Navarro County.
