Property values in Texas have soared in recent years due to migrations of retirees enticed by the pleasant climate and the relaxed low-key lifestyle of the American Southwest. Investors and business entrepreneurs are also relocating to the area due to its friendly business atmosphere, strategic location near other Southwest States (New Mexico, Arizona) and Mexico. The area's potential for growth is demonstrated in nearby San Antonio and Austin. As property values in these areas continue to increase, real estate in Bandera County represents excellent investment potential! Private property will soon be beyond the reach of a lot of Americans.

Situated in one of the naturally beautiful areas of Texas, Bandera County beckons visitors to share a taste of the Old West set against a backdrop of the spectacular scenery of the Texas Hill Country. Bandera's title, "Cowboy Capital of the World" originated when it became a staging area for the great cattle drives of yesteryear. When ranching fell on hard times in the 1930's, an enterprising rancher decided to take in "dudes" to help him through the depression. An exciting new industry was born! It continues to flourish today with a number of excellent Dude Ranches operating throughout Bandera County, Texas. Confirming Bandera as the "Cowboy Capital of the World", a bronze monument, honoring the many National Rodeo Champions who call Bandera, Texas, home, stands on the courthouse lawn. Enhancing the western character, a working blacksmith's shop on Main Street recalls the horse-and-buggy era when the forge was the center of every town's activities.
