Redford sits on the Rio Grande along scenic FM 170, offering quiet desert living and big-sky views. Weekend explorations lead west to Presidio for border-town dining, or east along River Road into Big Bend Ranch State Park for hiking, biking, and stargazing. The area’s night skies routinely dazzle, making backyard astronomy a favorite pastime. History buffs head to Fort Leaton State Historic Site, where the borderlands’ trading past comes to life.
Families in and around Redford are served by Presidio Independent School District, with elementary through high school options and a strong commitment to bilingual education and STEM programming. For arts, festivals, and a renowned contemporary culture scene, residents make easy day trips to Marfa; for expanded shopping, services, and higher education, Alpine is within reach, along with care at Big Bend Regional Medical Center.
Set within Presidio County, Redford appeals to buyers seeking acreage, adobe homesteads, or off-grid possibilities near protected lands, yet still connected via U.S. 67 and FM 170. Sunrise paddles on the Rio Grande, birding along cottonwood-lined banks, and quiet evenings on the porch define the pace here.
