TexasWell Data

Name: Texas Well Data
Creator: DrillerDB

Every dot on this map is a real well. We pulled all 705,947 Texas well-construction records - depth, water level, yield, and county - and drew the state with them. Brighter means more wells; color is how deep they go.

Distinct drilling companies on record

The median Texas well is 171 ft deep; the average is a bit higher (about 143 ft), pulled up by a long tail of very deep wells in the Driftless Area and the Door Peninsula. Numbers here come straight from filed well-construction reports - not a model.

How deep Texas wells go

Each bar is the share of wells finished at that depth (20-ft bins). Most Texas wells land between 40 and 200 ft.

Texas well questions

How deep are wells in Texas?

The median water well in Texas is 171 ft deep, based on 705,502 records with a reported depth. Half of all wells fall between 37 and 330 ft. Depth varies a lot by county - from about 18 ft in the shallowest counties to over 696 ft in the deepest.

What is the water table depth in Texas?

The median static water level (the depth to standing groundwater) across Texas records is about 83 ft. It is usually much shallower than the finished well depth, because wells are drilled past the water table to reach a dependable aquifer.

How many well records does Texas have?

DrillerDB holds 705,947 Texas well records - part of an 18-million-record national database built from state well-construction reports. Texas has required a well construction report for every new well since 1936.

How do I look up a specific address or well in Texas?

Use the free water table depth lookup to see typical depth and water level at any address, or open the interactive well map to browse individual well records near a location.

Source: 705,947 Texas well-construction records in the DrillerDB database, current through June 2026. Medians are computed from reported values; individual wells vary. Always confirm site conditions with a licensed local driller.
