About Edcouch
Edcouch (pop. 2,732 in the 2020 census) is a tiny farm town founded in 1927 and named for Edward Couch, a landowner and banker. It sits in the heart of the Valley's citrus belt next to Elsa, and the two towns share a school district and much of their civic life. A 1946 tornado near town was photographed for the historical record (shown in the Commons photo below). Housing is modest and affordable; the surrounding orchards and fields define the landscape.
