Fannin
6.4
High score (8-10)
Fannin County in NE Texas has 35,000 people. Bonham is Sam Rayburn's hometown — the former House Speaker's museum is here. The Bois d'Arc Lake (Texas's first new reservoir in decades, completed 2021) creates new recreation infrastructure. A foreign man who engages with the lake community finds a relatively new social space that hasn't fully calcified yet.
Mid score (6-8) · Your profile
Bonham is a small NE Texas city of 10,000. The county is agricultural and conservative. The lake development is bringing some new investment but the social culture is still NE Texas small-town.
Lower score (below 6)
Conservative NE Texas with generational social networks that don't easily include outsiders. The lake is new but the community is old. A foreign man without local ties finds the county closed in the typical East Texas way.
