About Randall County, TX

When I think of great Texas communities, there are a couple that come to mind, such as Amarillo and Canyon, which are both located in Randall County, Texas. Randall County has so much to offer its residents as it's situated on the very famous Texas Panhandle in south-central Texas. And the county itself is made up of around 933 square miles of beautiful land.

All communities within Randall County can easily be accessed by Interstates 27 & 40 and several main highways. As a matter of fact, there are 750 miles of roads within the county.

If you're looking for great schools to relocate your children to, there are five school districts within Randall County: Amarillo Independent School District, Canyon Independent School District, Bushland Independent School District, Wildorado Independent School District and Happy Independent School District. When combined, these school districts oversee a total of 17 elementary schools, two intermediate schools, three middle schools, two junior high schools, five high schools and one youth center. There are also several private schools within the county for parents to choose from as an alternative to public schooling.

As for schools of higher education, West Texas A&M University is also located within Randall County. It is considered one of the most prestigious universities in the country.

When it comes to recreation and activities, Randall County has a lot to offer its residents. Several parks can be found scattered throughout the county providing playgrounds, pavilions, picnic areas, ball parks, ball courts, walking trails, golf courses, theaters, museums, shopping areas and plenty of restaurants to choose from.

Every city within Randall County, in my opinion, is a wonderful community to live. But you will have to come see for yourself just how great it really is.

We are always trying to shake things up a bit and add useful tools to our website. Our latest brainchild is a weekly video blog that covers topics anywhere from reverse mortgages to ho to buy or sell a home. This is our third week of filming and so far things are really taken off but we still have a lot of room left to grow. Every week we record a new topic and we rotate between agents, this way we all get to make a fool of ourselves. Be kind when you watch, there is just something about being in front of the camera that makes you loose all train of thought. I hope you enjoy, let me know what you think.
