What it’s like
The place. Crowell is a very small Texas city and the seat of Foard County, with a population that is small even by rural standards. Poverty is lower than in many Texas towns, and homes here cost far less than the typical American house. Winters are cool and mostly dry, with only a dusting of snow, while summers turn very hot.
Work. Most residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, with farming, forestry and mining, the building trades and shops also employing many. Across Foard County, the largest workplace is Crowell ISD, the school district. Few people work from home, and a smaller share of adults hold a four-year degree than in the country as a whole.
Things to do. Copper Breaks State Park, a protected area, is a short drive away and is the nearest place to get outdoors. Groesbeck Creek, a river, and the Red River Valley Museum are both a longer drive away, and make a good day out for anyone willing to travel.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Crowell’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Foard County.
