We wish a Texas Howdy welcome to you from the heart of the Southeast Texas rolling hills! We believe if you scan our website, you will agree with us that our county can be home to you for a weekend or a lifetime.

We are proud of Grimes County and its unique history, as well as the giant strides in progress the county has taken since its founding in 1846.

We believe it would be hard to match our community in education, health care, quality of life and activities for both young and old. We are convenient to major airports yet are nestled away in the Texas rolling hills, away from urban congestion.

We started as an agricultural community and have kept that heritage and are known as the place "Where Texas is Still Texas."

As you review our county profile, you will discover our quality of life encompasses excellent education and health care facilities, superb police and fire protection and emergency services in the rolling hills of southeast Texas environment that abounds in recreational and relaxation opportunities.

Over the last 10 years, tourism has taken a giant step forward and is now a big part of our economy, yet we work hard to maintain a balance of a thriving tourism industry vital to our economy and a rural cultural heritage that adds to our quality of life.

Our rich soil provides us with an active agriculture industry and we work to balance our economy with a thriving manufacturing segment and continue to work in attracting high technology industries.

Our offices offer a number of services for existing businesses and potential businesses as well as relocation assistance. The Chamber is active in promoting the many attractions in the area and the Grimes County Economic Development Commission is ready to help you with your business.
