10 Rural Texas Towns With Houses So Cheap It Seems Like a Scam

But far away from Austin, Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio, there are rural Texas towns where houses and land are still so cheap they almost sound fake. In this video, we explore 10 rural Texas towns where prices are low for a reason. Some were forgotten after railroads moved away. Some lost their water, their businesses, or their population. Others were once important towns, ports, college communities, mining areas, or Route 66 stops before history passed them by. From Independence and Medicine Mound to Glenrio, Thurber, Toyah, Terlingua, Indianola, and Lobo, every town on this list has a real story behind the cheap property prices. This is not just about cheap houses in Texas.
