Caddo Mills, Texas · Hunt County
Irrigation and landscape work in Caddo Mills
Caddo Mills has nearly quadrupled since the 2020 census, from under fifteen hundred people to over five and a half thousand, with new subdivisions going in along State Highway 66 and the I-30 corridor and further annexation in progress. The zoning runs from one-acre estate lots down to seven-thousand square foot subdivision lots, so as with the other towns out here you get both worlds within a couple of miles.
The genuinely unusual thing about Caddo Mills is the water. Almost every city we serve ultimately drinks North Texas Municipal Water District water. Caddo Mills does not — the city runs its own retail utility but buys its finished water from the City of Greenville, which draws on off-channel reservoirs and Lake Tawakoni. Just as importantly, the supplier changes within a couple of miles of town: a rural Caddo Mills address may be served by the city, by Caddo Basin Special Utility District, or by Greenville directly. It is genuinely worth knowing which before anyone talks about restrictions.
Hunt County soils are described as loamy or clayey on the uplands with clay in the bottomlands — so it is Blackland Prairie country, but not uniformly the heavy Houston Black clay you find further west, and the creek bottoms are the heavier ground rather than the lighter. Hunt County also sits within no groundwater conservation district at all, which means a private well here carries no district permitting or registration layer.
