Brown County, Texas
Brown County sits right in the heart of Texas. Brownwood is the biggest town and county seat, a nice mix of old and new. The nearby Lake Brownwood is a popular spot for fishing and boating.
The county has a rich Native American history. Pecan orchards are everywhere. Yep, the nuts are delicious. Summers are hot, but the Hill Country scenery makes up for it.
Hunting is big business here, especially during deer season. The people are friendly in that small-town Texas way. There’s a nice balance of rural and urban life.
