Fact text

  • Five Houston oilmen bought the land in 1937 as a private hunting retreat, then simply named it 'Cinco Ranch' because there were five of them, 'cinco' means five in Spanish.
  • One of those five friends, James Abercrombie, invented the blowout preventer, the critical oil-well safety device used worldwide to this day.
  • Back when it was a working cattle ranch, the land was so authentically cowboy that Hollywood filmed two silent Westerns here, including 'North of 36' in 1924.
  • The community's centerpiece when it opened in 1991 was a manmade beach and swimming pool surrounded by a lake, in suburban Texas, because why not.
