Yoakum County, Texas
Yoakum County, seated in Plains near the New Mexico border, sits deep in the Permian Basin oil patch, with drilling and oilfield services alongside irrigated cotton farming forming the core of the local economy. It is one of the least populous counties in Texas, and its fortunes move almost entirely with crude prices and cotton yields.
