What 169 positive-depth household records tell you
Brooks County has 169 domestic reports, and all 169 include a positive borehole depth. Those logs have a 440-foot median. Their middle half runs from 380 to 555 feet, the calculated 90th-percentile marker is 601 feet, and the full recorded positive range is 200 to 860 feet.
The median domestic completion year is 2008, with reported domestic completion years spanning 2001 through 2025. Record age is planning context, not proof that an older or newer filing matches one tract.
This record set is useful planning context, but it is not a property estimate. Nearby comparable records, intended demand, access, power, casing and sealing choices, pump setting, pressure equipment, treatment or storage needs, source documents, and exact site conditions still belong in the review.

Brooks County’s well file serves several purposes
Brooks County’s 926 submitted reports include 349 monitor, 216 environmental soil-boring, 169 domestic, 132 stock, 29 rig-supply, 19 industrial, 7 irrigation, 2 public-supply, 1 injection, 1 test-well, and 1 other-use record. Keep those purposes separate so environmental, livestock, industrial, or other non-household work does not distort household planning.
Domestic records
All 169 domestic filings include a positive depth. Those values have a 440-foot median and a 380-to-555-foot middle band.
Monitor records
All 349 filings include a positive depth, with a 35-foot median tied to a different monitoring purpose.
Environmental soil-boring records
All 216 filings include a positive depth, with a 20-foot median and a purpose distinct from a domestic water-supply well.
Stock records
All 132 filings include a positive depth, with a 402-foot median and a separate livestock demand profile.
Rig-supply records
All 29 filings include a positive depth, with a 440-foot median tied to a separate supply purpose.
The remaining mix includes 19 industrial, 7 irrigation, 2 public-supply, 1 injection, 1 test-well, and 1 other-use record. Those categories provide context without replacing a domestic comparison.
Brooks County records need to be sorted by purpose
A countywide average that blends household wells with monitor, environmental soil-boring, stock, rig-supply, industrial, irrigation, public-supply, injection, test-well, and other-use filings is not a clean comparison. Household planning should begin with the domestic records.
The complete Brooks County job is more than drilling footage
Gate width, road conditions, overhead lines, septic placement, distance to power, intended demand, and equipment choices all belong in the plan.
Property access
Roads, gates, low branches, overhead lines, utility conflicts, turning room, drainage, and a safe stabilized work pad.
Water demand
Household use, livestock, irrigation, storage, treatment, and peak daily needs.
Pump and power
Pump selection, anticipated drawdown, electrical service, controls, pressure equipment, line runs, and trenching.
Complete installation
Casing, completion materials, testing, storage, plumbing, treatment, cleanup, and startup.
Build the estimate around what the Brooks County property actually needs.
Share the address, intended use, access, timing, and any existing well information. TurnKey Wells reviews the project context and connects the owner with a qualified water-well professional for the next step.
Separate drilling footage from the finished system
A complete Brooks County budget may include mobilization, drilling, casing, completion materials, pump and controls, pressure equipment, trenching, electrical work, storage, testing, treatment, drainage, and cleanup. The Texas water well drilling cost guide explains the major categories behind a headline estimate.
The Pre-Drill Report can bring nearby well records and property details into one review, but no county pattern predicts the producing interval, total depth, water level, yield, salinity, or water quality at one property. Use property-specific research before treating a county pattern as a drilling plan.

Pre-Drill Intelligence Report
The county information on this page shows broad patterns. The paid report narrows the research to one Brooks County property before you compare drilling quotes or choose the next step for your land.
- Nearby recorded wells and reported depths
- Property access and site-planning questions
- Questions to ask before drilling begins
- A clearer picture of the complete water system
Understand the ground before you drill. Property conditions can change across the county. A property-specific review brings nearby well records, location, intended use, access, and complete-system questions together before you request a drilling quote.

Plain answers before you plan the work
What do Brooks County household well records show?
The county file includes 169 positive domestic borehole-depth logs with a 440-foot median, a 380-to-555-foot middle band, a 601-foot calculated 90th percentile, and a 200-to-860-foot full range.
Why should Brooks County records be separated by use?
The file includes monitor, environmental soil-boring, domestic, stock, rig-supply, industrial, irrigation, public-supply, injection, test-well, and other-use filings. Keeping each purpose separate avoids turning non-household work into a household expectation.
Does a countywide depth pattern predict one property?
No. County records do not prove the producing interval, total depth, water level, yield, salinity, or water quality at one property.
What property details help start a Brooks County review?
Provide the exact address or coordinates, intended water use, access and turning constraints, available power, utilities, wastewater components, desired pressure, treatment or storage needs, and any nearby well documents you already have.
What should a complete drilling quote include?
Compare mobilization, drilling, casing, completion materials, pump and controls, pressure equipment, electrical and trenching work, testing, treatment or storage where needed, access details, startup, and cleanup.
Water well planning across Brooks County
Property questions begin around Falfurrias, Encino, county roads, homesites, ranches, and rural acreage. Start with the exact address or coordinates, intended water use, access, available power, storage needs, utilities, wastewater components, and nearby domestic records; a community label does not prove shared subsurface conditions, water quality, yield, or private-well feasibility.
