Duval County, Texas

Duval County has stories to tell. It’s down in South Texas, about an hour west of Corpus Christi. This place has seen its share of drama. Political scandals. Land disputes. You name it.
San Diego is the county seat. No, not that San Diego. This one’s pure Texas. The county has deep Hispanic roots. You hear more Spanish than English most days.
Ranching is still a way of life here. But it’s not all cowboys. There’s oil too and wind farms keep sprouting up. Duval County is a place that marches to its own beat.
