What it’s like
The place. Moore is a very small community in Frio County, Texas, where people know one another and the pace is quiet. Winters are mild, with little or no snow, and summers are hot, especially in August. Rain is modest through the year, and homes here are valued below what many buyers find in larger Texas cities.
Work. Many residents work in farming, forestry and mining, in schools, hospitals and social care, in government, or in professional and business services. Across Frio County, some of the largest workplaces are Pearsall ISD, Frio Regional Hospital and Walmart. Unemployment across the county is lower than a year ago, though the number of jobs across the county slipped last year.
Things to do. Seco Creek is a river a short drive away, and it is the closest of the nearby waters. Hondo Creek and the Leona River are also rivers, each a longer drive away. The Landmark Inn State Historic Site, a protected area, is also a longer drive from town.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Moore’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. 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 Frio County and the Pearsall, TX metro.
