== Fun facts ==
* Crosby County is solidly Republican these days, but it doesn't give as high of a percentage as other counties in the area do.
* Confederate veteran Paris Cox first visited the Caprock Escarpment of the Llano Estacado with a group of buffalo hunters in 1879. Estacado was named the county seat in 1886. By 1900, the beef industry was thriving, supporting 30,618 head.
* The first soil conservation district in the county was formed in 1941. In 1955, oil was discovered in the county.
* The Crosby County Electric Mills are located south of Crosbyton.
* The White River Reservoir in the southeastern part of the county is known regionally for its good fishing.
* Lorenzo was once known for being a speed trap until the early-mid 2000s.
* Until the passage of a referendum to permit liquor sales, held on May 11, 2013, Crosby County had been one of 19 remaining prohibition or entirely dry counties within Texas.
* Part of the large Matador Ranch of West Texas extends into the county.
* Crosbyton has little in the way of amenities to offer, not even having a Dairy Queen. The only fast food place in town is a Subway, and the town also has a municipal airport. However, asides a sports complex, a few public battle fields and a few local restaurants and businesses, that's about it.
