Question

How do counties in Texas differ from cities in their powers, duties, and responsibilities, and which do you think has more advantages

Answer 1

Explanation:

Counties have limited specified legal powers and except for law enforcement , courts , the jail, public health , floodplain administration and rural road and bridge matters they cannot do much else.

Cities, towns and villages have significantly broader powers, depending on what kind of municipality they are.

One is one thing, the other is the other. Most people living outside city limits prefer to not be under the thumb of and paying taxes for, a city administration. People who live in town are stuck with the “advantages”.
