Sweetwater

Sweetwater straddles Sweetwater Creek in the Rolling Plains of west-central Texas, and that creekside position helped establish it as Nolan County’s service center for a broad ranching country. The city developed as a railroad town and remains connected to regional travel by Interstate 20. Its defining wartime chapter is Avenger Field, where Women Airforce Service Pilots trained during World War II; the National WASP WWII Museum preserves that legacy. Each March, the Sweetwater Rattlesnake Roundup continues a long-running local tradition. See how Sweetwater fits into the wider Rolling Plains by browsing webcams nearby.
