About Sanderson

Sanderson is the Cactus Capital of Texas, Eastgate to the Big Bend Wilderness Area and home to most Terrell County residents. On Historic Highway 90, about midway between San Antonio and El Paso, its geographic location and altitude of about 3,000 feet give Sanderson a climate unparalleled in the Southwest. The legacy of a rich and colorful past endures in the surviving architectural heritage of adobe and stucco buildings; the century-old depot; railroad buildings and cattle pens.
