About Cuero

Cuero is a welcoming South Texas town of about 8,000 people, nestled along the Guadalupe River roughly halfway between San Antonio and the Gulf Coast. Famous for its deep ranching roots and its title as the "Turkey Capital of the World," the community still gathers every fall for the lively Cuero Turkeyfest. A walk through town reveals a charming historic district filled with preserved Victorian architecture, local diners, and the beautiful DeWitt County Courthouse. U.S. 87 and U.S. 77A run right through the area, putting the larger shopping and medical centers in Victoria only about a thirty-minute drive away.

For anyone considering a move, Cuero delivers a relaxed, small-town lifestyle centered around family and community. Local students attend Cuero Independent School District, where the green-and-white Gobblers bring the whole town out on Friday nights in the fall. On weekends, you will find neighbors outdoors at Cuero Municipal Park, boating along the river, or enjoying the scenic South Texas countryside. It is a quiet, friendly place to put down roots while still enjoying easy drives to the coast and major cities.
