Cantu Addition
Cantu Addition is a residential community located just west of U. S. Highway 281 about two miles southwest of Falfurrias in northern Brooks County. The development, named after a major landowner in that area, began by the 1990s. The first population figures were available from the 2000 census, when the community reported 217 residents.
Adapted from the official Handbook of Texas, a state encyclopedia developed by the Texas State Historical Association (TSHA). It is an authoritative source of trusted historical records.
