Here's I believe to be some pretty interesting facts about Ft. Davis.
Fort Davis is known as the highest town in Texas because it is!
It's elevation of 5,050 feet above sea level makes this community almost as high as Denver.

Due to the clear skies and height, numerous stars may be seen in the night sky.

The geography for Fort Davis is in the high desert region called the Chihuahuan Desert.

Due to the beautiful and unspoiled countryside here, many films are shot here including Lonesome Dove, the Good Old Boys, the Streets of Laredo and others.

Four Greenhouses here are 26 acres each, making them some of the world's largest.

The weather in Fort Davis is moderate.

Low summer temperatures as well as low humidity makes the Fort Davis area an enjoyable place to live.
