Red River County, Texas
Red River County sits up in the northeastern corner of Texas, right on the Oklahoma border. The county gets its name from the Red River, which forms its northern boundary.
Clarksville, the county seat, is steeped in history. This part of Texas feels more like the South than the West. Cotton fields stretch far. Hunting is huge, especially during deer season.
Folks here are proud of their roots. The county’s been around since Texas was a republic, one of the original counties. The population’s been shrinking for years, but the community spirit is as strong as ever.
