What it’s like
The place. Paint Rock is a very small town in Concho County, Texas, where neighbors are likely to know one another. Homes here cost less than in much of the country, and the county's household incomes are modest. Few adults hold a four-year degree.
Work. Residents work mostly in shops, in schools, hospitals and social care, in restaurants, hotels and entertainment, and in the building trades. Across Concho County, the biggest workplaces include Paint Rock ISD, Concho County Hospital and Eden II Enterprises. Unemployment in the county is low, and the number of jobs has edged up from the year before.
Things to do. Kickapoo Creek runs in or beside town, a simple spot for time outdoors. A longer drive brings you to the Concho River and South Concho River, and to O.H. Ivie Lake for time on the water. Winters are mild and summers are hot, and the area is fairly dry through the year.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Paint Rock’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 Concho County.
