Located on the eastern edge of New Mexico along the Texas state line, Texico is a proud High Plains community built on hard work, strong values, and neighborly spirit. Founded in the early 1900s during the expansion of the railroad, Texico grew from agricultural roots into a close-knit community where tradition, service, and family still matter.
Our name reflects our unique place and history a blend of Texas and New Mexico and our community continues to share a strong connection with our neighbors in Farwell and the surrounding region.
From our long-standing farming and ranching heritage to our commitment to strong schools, safe neighborhoods, and responsible growth, Texico remains a place where generations of families are proud to call home.
