Colorado City Texas Mother City of West Texas
Weldon Owens notes Colorado City in Mitchell county as the oldest town between Weatherford and El Paso, dubbed the Mother City of West Texas. It grew from 700 people in 1881 to over 5000 in 1882, with Texas Rangers at a 1877 camp and the first T and P trains sparking a boom era. Fortunes rose and fell amid saloons before agriculture, cotton, and oil in the 1920s stabilized the economy and industrial payrolls.
