Karnes County, Texas
Karnes County, seated at Karnes City, was one of the epicenters of the Eagle Ford Shale oil boom that began around 2010, bringing a wave of drilling, pipeline and man-camp development to what had long been ranching and row-crop country. Agriculture and cattle remain the steadier underlying land use as the shale cycle has matured, with oilfield services still a meaningful share of local employment.
