So here's the thing. Texas is a BIG place.
But being from California big didn't bother me. What did surprise me, was just how many counties there are in Texas. It seems like you could just drive down a long road, and about every 30 minutes you'd find yourself in a new county.
In California you can move from one county to the next, and you'd hardly notice the differences. The changes in rules are minor and may never affect you. It's one big state. In Texas the rules and differences can be night and day. You NEED to know what county you live in. So below, take a few moments to find your county. Trust me.... it'll come up.
You can check your county by entering the ZIP code through the US Census website. You can download the county map and other US Census data HERE.
Your county is important; it will make a difference on the taxes you pay, auto registration requirements, and voting locations. Texas has A LOT of counties. It's important you know yours.
