Brazos County, Texas
Brazos County sits right in the heart of Texas, about halfway between Houston and Austin. It’s home to Texas A&M University, which pretty much runs the show around here.
College Station and Bryan are the main towns, always buzzing with students and football fans. The Brazos River cuts through, giving the county its name and some nice spots to fish or kayak.
Summers are hot as blazes, but winters are mild. Agriculture is still big business, with plenty of cotton and cattle. There’s a nice mix of city life and country living. And don’t forget the bluebonnets in spring. Yep, they’re a sight to see!
