About Pecos

The town of Pecos is located in the western portion of the Lone Star State. Pecos is considered a part of Reeves County, Texas, and has a population of approximately nine thousand five hundred residents. It is the Texas center for ranching, and was the site of the world’s first rodeo, held in the year eighteen eighty three. The small town has much to offer to residents of a Pecos apartment for rent or house for rent. Among the local hot spots are the Maxey Park and Zoo, which houses buffalo, deer, and lions. Pecos was the birthplace of the band Los Rieleros del Norte, Abel Talamantez, and Esmi Talamantez.

For some relaxation, the park also has a botanical garden crowned with flowers and a picnic area. It’s “Kid’s City,” a playground, is a favorite for children. The West-of-the Pecos Museum and Park is another attraction for residents and visitors alike. Here, life is relived in the 1800s with very accurate displays, including the first building in Pecos and the grave of Clay Allison, the “Gentleman Gunfighter.” A visit to Pecos is incomplete without a taste of its famous cantaloupes.
