What 684 positive-depth household records tell you
Calhoun County has 684 domestic reports, and all 684 include a positive borehole depth. Those logs have a 225-foot median. Their middle half runs from 180 to 260 feet, the calculated 90th-percentile marker is 342.7 feet, and the full recorded positive range is 26 to 575 feet.
The median domestic completion year is 2014, with reported domestic completion years spanning 2001 through 2025. Record age is comparison context, not proof that an older or newer filing matches one tract.
Historical county records do not predict one property’s producing interval, total depth, water level, yield, water quality, or final price. On the coastal plain, a useful quote also needs load-bearing shell or gravel access, turning and service clearance, drainage and flood planning, equipment elevation, corrosion-resistant material choices, intended demand, power, pressure equipment, storage, treatment, electrical and trenching work, startup, and cleanup.

Recorded domestic borehole depths
The middle half of 684 positive reported domestic depths
Calhoun County’s well file serves several purposes
The 1,887 submitted reports include 684 domestic, 524 monitor, 385 environmental soil-boring, 111 stock, 68 irrigation, 41 rig-supply, 25 industrial, 24 other, 15 test-well, 10 public-supply. Keep those purposes separate so environmental, monitoring, livestock, irrigation, rig-supply, industrial, public-supply, or other non-household work does not distort household planning.
Domestic records
All 684 include positive depths, with a 225-foot median and a 180-to-260-foot middle band.
Monitor records
These have a 25-foot median tied to a different monitoring purpose.
Environmental soil-boring records
These have a 20-foot median and a purpose distinct from a domestic water-supply well.
Stock records
These have a 265-foot median and a separate livestock demand profile.
Irrigation records
These have a 280-foot median and a separate demand profile.
The remaining mix includes 41 rig-supply, 25 industrial, 24 other, 15 test-well, and 10 public-supply records. They provide context without replacing a domestic comparison.
Calhoun County records need to be sorted by purpose
A countywide average that blends household wells with environmental, monitor, stock, irrigation, rig-supply, industrial, public-supply, test-well, and other filings is not a clean comparison. Household planning should begin with the domestic records.
The complete Calhoun 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 Calhoun 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 Calhoun 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.

Plain answers before you plan the work
What do Calhoun County household well records show?
The county file includes 684 positive domestic borehole-depth logs with a 225-foot median, a 180-to-260-foot middle band, a 342.7-foot calculated 90th percentile, and a 26-to-575-foot full range.
Why should Calhoun County records be separated by use?
The file includes domestic, monitor, environmental soil-boring, stock, irrigation, rig-supply, industrial, other, test-well, and public-supply filings. Keeping each purpose separate avoids turning non-household work into a household expectation.
Does a countywide depth pattern predict one property?
No. Historical statistics are comparison context, not a prediction of producing interval, total depth, water level, yield, water quality, or price for one property.
What coastal property details help start a Calhoun County review?
Provide the exact address or coordinates, intended water use, load-bearing access and turning constraints, drainage and flood context, planned equipment elevation, corrosion exposure, available power, 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, coastal access and elevation details, startup, and cleanup.
Water well planning across Calhoun County
Property questions begin around Port Lavaca, Point Comfort, Seadrift, Port O’Connor, Magnolia Beach, county roads, homesites, ranches, and rural coastal acreage. Start with the exact address or coordinates, intended water use, load-bearing access, drainage and flood context, equipment elevation, corrosion exposure, 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.
