Bordered by the winding Sabine River, Sabine County spans about 588 square miles of lush pine–hardwood forests, rolling pastureland, and scenic waterways. The county seat, Hemphill, retains a classic East Texas feel with its historic courthouse square and friendly local shops, while communities like Bronson and Pineland offer quiet rural living just two hours north of Houston and an hour south of Shreveport.
Timber and outdoor recreation define Sabine’s economy and lifestyle. Vast loblolly pine plantations fuel a thriving forestry sector, while pastureland supports cattle ranching.
