What 2,168 positive-depth household records tell you
Wharton County has 2,168 domestic reports, and every one includes a positive borehole depth. Those logs have a 200-foot median, while their middle half runs from 136 to 243 feet. The calculated 90th-percentile marker is 319.3 feet, and the full recorded positive range is 15 to 850 feet.
The distribution is useful planning context, but it is not a property estimate. Nearby comparable records, intended demand, access, pump setting, casing and sealing choices, utilities, drainage, source documents, and site conditions still belong in the review.

Recorded domestic borehole depths
The middle half of 2,168 positive reported domestic depths
Wharton County’s well file serves several purposes
Domestic filings account for 2,168 of the county’s 3,641 submitted reports, followed by 331 rig-supply, 326 stock, 296 irrigation, and 249 monitoring records. Smaller categories remain part of the file instead of being folded into the household comparison.
Domestic depth logs
All 2,168 domestic filings include a positive depth. Their 200-foot median and 136-to-243-foot middle band provide the cleanest household comparison.
Rig-supply depth logs
All 331 rig-supply filings include a positive depth, with a 200-foot median tied to a separate operational use.
Stock depth logs
All 326 stock filings include a positive depth, with a 155-foot median tied to livestock use rather than household demand.
Irrigation depth logs
All 296 irrigation filings include a positive depth, with a 360-foot median and a separate water-demand profile.
Monitoring depth logs
All 249 monitoring filings include a positive depth, with a 50-foot median and an investigative purpose.
The remaining mix includes 169 industrial, 46 environmental soil-boring, 19 other, 18 public-supply, nine de-watering, six closed-loop geothermal, and four test-well records.
Wharton County records need to be sorted by purpose
A countywide average that blends household wells with rig-supply, stock, irrigation, monitoring, industrial, environmental, public-supply, and other work is not a clean comparison. Household planning should begin with the domestic records.
The complete Wharton 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 Wharton 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 Wharton 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 Wharton 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 Wharton County household well records show?
The county file includes 2,168 positive domestic borehole-depth logs with a 200-foot median, a 136-to-243-foot middle band, a 319.3-foot calculated 90th percentile, and a 15-to-850-foot full range.
Why should Wharton County records be separated by use?
Domestic records lead the file, followed by rig-supply, stock, irrigation, monitoring, industrial, environmental soil-boring, and other 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.
Which groundwater rules apply in Wharton 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 Wharton County
Property owners ask about well planning around Wharton, El Campo, East Bernard, Boling, Louise, Hungerford, Lane City, and rural acreage between them. Start with the exact address or coordinates, intended water use, access, utilities, drainage, and nearby domestic records; a community label does not prove shared geology, water quality, or private-well feasibility.
