Oldham County, Texas

The Texas Panhandle is home to Oldham County. Vega, the county seat, sits right on historic Route 66. It’s cattle country, with ranches that have been around for generations.
The Canadian River cuts through the northern part of the county, creating some dramatic scenery. The population is small, but the sense of community is strong.
There’s not much nightlife, but the sunsets are spectacular. Agriculture and ranching keep the economy going. If you’re looking for a taste of the Old West, Oldham County’s still got it.
