What 414 household well records tell you
Hill County has 414 domestic reports with a positive borehole depth. Their median is 363.5 feet, and the middle half runs from about 240 to 504.5 feet. The 90th-percentile planning marker is about 635.5 feet, while the full recorded range is 80 to 1,373 feet.
Those figures describe a historical county sample, not a standard for one property. Local geology, the water-bearing interval, intended demand, construction choices, access, and nearby well records can all change the scope. A shallow filing is not a best-case budget, and one upper-range record is not a drilling target.

Recorded domestic borehole depths
The middle half of reported domestic borehole depths
Hill County’s well file serves several purposes
Domestic use accounts for 414 of the county’s 784 submitted reports. Monitoring, environmental soil boring, rig-supply, stock, irrigation, geothermal, other, public-supply, industrial, injection, and test-well records stay separate so their different purposes do not distort household planning.
Domestic records
All 414 household reports include a positive borehole depth. The median is 363.5 feet, and the middle half runs from about 240 to 504.5 feet.
Monitor records
Monitoring is the second-largest group. Its 25-foot median reflects a different purpose and should not be silently merged with household records.
Environmental soil borings
Environmental filings have a 10-foot median and their own investigation context.
Rig-supply records
Rig-supply filings have a 1,120-foot median and a separate operational purpose.
Stock records
Stock-use filings have a 455-foot median and should remain distinct from household planning.
The file also contains 12 irrigation records, 10 closed-loop geothermal records, 9 other records, 8 public-supply records, 5 industrial records, 4 injection records, and 2 test-well records.
Hill County records need to be sorted by purpose
A countywide average that blends shallow monitoring and environmental work with household, rig-supply, stock, and irrigation wells is not a clean comparison. Household planning should begin with domestic records while keeping every filing’s reported purpose in view.
The complete Hill 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 Hill 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 Hill 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.
Regional aquifer context can help frame questions, but an aquifer label does not predict the producing interval, total depth, water level, yield, or water quality at one property. Use nearby records and property-specific research before treating any 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 Hill 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 Hill County household well records show?
The county file includes 414 positive domestic borehole-depth logs with a 363.5-foot median and an approximately 240-to-504.5-foot middle band. A property-level comparison is still needed before planning a new well.
Why should Hill County records be separated by use?
The submitted reports include domestic wells alongside monitoring, environmental, rig-supply, stock, irrigation, geothermal, other, public-supply, industrial, injection, and test-well uses. Keeping each purpose separate produces a cleaner household planning picture.
Does regional aquifer context predict one property?
No. Regional aquifer context does not prove the producing interval, total depth, water level, yield, or water quality at one property.
Which groundwater rules apply in Hill County?
Registration, permitting, spacing, construction, and reporting requirements can depend on the property, district boundary, well type, and intended use. Confirm current requirements before work begins.
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, startup, and cleanup.
Water well planning across Hill County
Property owners ask about well planning around Hillsboro, Whitney, Itasca, Hubbard, Abbott, Covington, Aquilla, Malone, and rural acreage between them. Start with the exact address or coordinates, intended water use, access, utilities, and nearby domestic records; a community label does not prove shared geology, water quality, or private-well feasibility.
