The Texas Legislature recognizes April 24, 2025, as Jim Hogg County Day at the State Capitol. The resolution highlights the county's history, geography, and contributions to Texas. Jim Hogg County, located in the Rio Grande Plain region, was first inhabited by hunter-gatherers and later by the Coahuiltecan and Lipan Apache peoples. Spanish and Mexican settlers arrived in the early 1800s, and the county was officially organized in 1913. Oil discovery in 1921 spurred growth, and today, the county's economy is driven by petroleum production, ranching, and agriculture.
