Atascosa County, Texas

Atascosa Location Map Texas

Atascosa County sits just south of San Antonio, still within an hour’s drive of a major city. Known for its ranching and agriculture, it produces everything from peanuts to watermelons.

If you’re cruising down I-37, you’ll pass by small communities like Pleasanton and Jourdanton. Both towns serve as hubs for local events, with Pleasanton proudly claiming the title of “Birthplace of the Cowboy”.

The county’s history is rich, with Spanish settlers arriving in the 1700s. Atascosa may not be the largest county in Texas, but it’s got a lot to offer if you like a slower pace with a touch of Texas grit.
