Loving County, Texas

Located here [just wait; it'll get there] in West Texas, Loving has a population of 52¹ and only one town, Mentone, with a population of 15¹. The Hispanic population is approximately five or six and the black population got smart and moved out a long time ago. Loving County is known for making Edna Reed Claton Dewees the first elected sheriff in Texas². It is wet, alcohol wise, and pretty damn dry precipitation wise. Directions: you can't get there from here³.
