What it’s like
The place. Reno is a small Texas town in Lamar County with a young population for the area, with a median age lower than the national one. Homes here are valued below what many Texas towns see, and the share of adults with a four-year degree is moderate. Winters are mild and cool, with January the coldest month, and summers turn hot by August; rain and melted snow add up to a fairly wet year.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by shops, manufacturing and the building trades. Very few work from home, so most people travel to a job somewhere nearby. Across Lamar County, some of the largest workplaces are The Campbell's Company - Paris, Paris ISD and Paris Regional Medical Center. Unemployment across the county has risen a little over the past year, and the county has fewer jobs than it did the year before.
Things to do. For a quick outing, Lamar County Historical Museum and Lake Crook, a reservoir, are both a short drive away, as is H. L. "Hub" Hollis Field, a stadium for local games. Those who don't mind a longer drive can reach the Sulphur River or Caddo National Grassland, a protected area of open country.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Reno’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 Lamar County and the Paris, TX metro.
