Established in the 1860s and served by Floresville as its county seat, this big community interconnected by the U.S. Highway 87, U.S. Highway 181, and State Highway 97; is without a doubt a very attractive destination away from the constant rush of San Antonio. In this land, it is very interesting to analyze how the most important employers in this territory are the educational, social services, retail trade, and construction industries; generating more than 70% of private wages, close to 20% government salaries, and a very little percentage of not incorporated workers.
