# Lista okruga Teksasa

Karta teksaških okruga s gustoćom naseljenosti.
Država Texas se dijeli na 254 okruga (*county*). To je država s najviše okruga u Sjedinjenim Državama.

Texas je prvobitno bio podijeljen na opštine, jedinice lokalne samouprave pod španskom i meksičkom vlašću. Kada je Republika Texas stekla nezavisnost 1836. godine, postojale su dvadeset i tri opštine, koje su postale prvobitni okrugi Texasa. Mnogi od njih će se kasnije podijeliti u nove okruge.

Posljednji osnovani okrug je Loving County, koji je nastao 1931. godine.

## Sastav

Svakim okrugom upravlja sud povjerenika, koji se sastoji od četiri izabrana povjerenika (po jedan iz svake od četiri općine) i županijskog suca, kojeg biraju svi birači u okrugu.

U manjim županijama, županijski sudac zapravo obavlja sudijske poslove, ali u većim je uloga suca ograničena na rad u sudu povjerenika. Određene dužnosnike, poput šerifa i poreznika, biraju odvojeno birači, ali sud povjerenika utvrđuje budžet njihovih ureda i utvrđuje ukupnu politiku okruga.

## Ukinuti okruzi

Postoji nekoliko okruga u Texasu koji danas više ne postoje, među ostalim mogu se spomenuti:

* Okrug Buchel je osnovan 1887. iz okruga Presidio. Godine 1897. pripojen je okrugu Brewster.
* Stari okrug Dawson je stvoren 1858. i ukinut 1866. Ne treba ga miješati sa drugim okrugom Dawson.
* Okrug Encinal County je stvoren 1856. i ukinut 1899. ida bi bio uključen u okrug Webb.
* Okrug Foley je stvoren 1887. iz okruga Presidio te je 1897. pripojen okrugu Brewster.
* Teksaški okrug Greer je osnovan 1860. godine. Odvojen je od Texasa presudom Vrhovnog suda SAD-a u predmetu *United States v. State of Texas* (1896) i sada je dio jugozapadne Oklahome.
* Okrug Perdido je osnovan 1824. i zanemaren tijekom preokreta 1840-ih. Perdido je navodno ukinut 1858. i ponovno u 1871. Zapisi o pripajanju okrugu Dawson također su neuvjerljivi.
* Okrug Santa Fe u Texasu je osnovan 1848. na zemlji na kojoj je polagala pravo Republika Teksas, a koju je ustupio Meksiko. Uključuje veliko područje koje je kasnije postalo više djelova od nekoliko država od Novog Meksika istočno od Rio Grandea, protežući se prema sjeveru u južno-središnji Wyomingu. Unutar teksaških suvremenih granica, okrug je uključivao regiju Trans-Pecos i većinu Panhandlea. Okrug je ukinut kada je Texas ustupio svoje zapadne zemlje prema nagodbi iz 1850.
* Okrug Wegefarth je stvoren 1873. i ukinut 1876.
* Okrug Worth je stvoren 1850. od okruga Santa Fe i ukinut nagodbom iz 1850. godine.

Nekad je bilo najmanje trideset i dva okruga osnovana texaškim zakonom a koja više ne postoje. Spadaju u pet kategorija:

* punopravni okruzi;
* okruzi osnovani Ustavnom konvencijom iz 1868–1869;
* okruzi koji zapravo nikada nisu uspostavljene i koje su ukinute zakonodavnim aktom;
* okruzi čija se teritorija više ne smatra djelom države;
* i okruzi čiji su nazivi promijenjeni.
