Dimmitt Municipal Court

This territory of American, German, Irish, English, and Scotch-Irish has an estimated population of 3800 residents with a racial makeup of Hispanic, White Non Hispanic, African American, Native American, and other racial groups. The economy in this community is mostly ruled by agriculture, forestry, hunting, food, construction, educational services, and health care industries; which provide the majority of private wages and employment in this municipality. The biggest challenge for the local authorities is to overcome the almost 20% of poverty registered in this land during the latest population census, keeping more than 30% of the residents under 18 years old living under very poor conditions.
