Big Spring, County seat in Howard County, Texas

Big Spring sits at an elevation of 744 meters at the intersection of U.S. Highway 87 and Interstate 20 in western Texas.

The settlement emerged in 1882 around a natural spring that served as a water source for Native American tribes including Jumano, Apache, and Comanche.

The F. Marie Hall Stage and Plaza functions as a central venue for performances, connecting residents through artistic and social gatherings throughout the year.

The city administration operates from 310 Nolan Street, providing municipal services, permit applications, and citizen request tracking through their official website.

A single large spring flows into a small gorge between Scenic Mountain and an adjacent hill within the southwestern section of the city limits.
