Hunt County Home & Property

Texas law says each region must write a water plan every five years. Hunt County is part of a regional group that sends those plans to the TWDB (Texas Water Development Board). From early 2016 to late 2023, no public water system in Hunt County reported critically low water supply. Critically low means about 180 days or less of supply on hand.

If you use a public water system in Hunt County, ask your water provider about local supply. Rural residents on private wells are not part of the public planning process. The TWDB website keeps water planning documents for Hunt County if you want to read the details.
