Howard County balances open-sky serenity with the day-to-day conveniences residents appreciate. Anchored by Big Spring and within reach of broader opportunities in Midland, the county blends short commutes with room to breathe. Weekends often center on outdoor time at Big Spring State Park, where scenic overlooks, cycling routes, and sunset views make a compelling routine. Families spread out at Comanche Trail Park for fishing, playgrounds, and picnics, while history buffs head to the restored B-52-era hangar at the acclaimed Hangar 25 Air Museum.
Education is a local point of pride. Big Spring ISD, along with the strong community-centered districts in Coahoma and Forsan, offer a range of academic and extracurricular programs designed to prepare students for what’s next. Higher education and workforce training are close at hand through Howard College, supporting pathways in health sciences, trades, and university transfer. Countywide services help keep life moving smoothly across Howard County, with a full calendar of civic events and volunteer opportunities that keep neighbors connected.
Housing options fit many lifestyles, from classic bungalows near downtown Big Spring to newer builds and acreage outside the city core.
