Arizonan transplanted to Texas. My three favorite Texas town names are Bug Tussle, Cut and Shoot, and Dime Box.

From my perspective, first having bicycled through Texas, now a resident, small Texas towns can be grouped roughly by longitude into three categories. East Texas: piney woods, wide spots in the road, southern-inflected speech, with the prevalence of Cajun food increasing heading east. Central Texas: tony, glittering quaint-yet-stylish German-influenced meccas. Lots of limetone, vineyards, and tourists. Sophisticated urban speech patterns due to urban refugees. West Texas: Dry and dusty (El Paso gets 7.5 inches of rain/year, for instance). Folks are a variety of quirky iconiclasts, rugged individualists, oil/cattle/agriculture workers. Distinctive Texas twang speech inflection.
