Real County, Administrative division in Texas, United States.
Real County spans 622 square miles of dissected canyonlands in southwest Texas, between Edwards County and Uvalde County, with elevations from 1,500 to 2,400 feet.
The Texas Legislature established Real County in 1913, naming it after Julius Real, who served as the sole Republican member of the Texas State Senate.
The limestone canyons near Nueces and Frio rivers contain numerous Indigenous rock art sites, documenting the presence of Tonkawa and Lipan Apache tribes.
The county maintains two public libraries, a courthouse in Leakey, and receives services from both the Frio Canyon and Nueces Canyon Chambers of Commerce.
Both the Frio and Nueces rivers originate within Real County from natural springs in limestone formations, creating a water-rich environment in southwest Texas.
