Orangefield, Texas

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Orangefield is an unincorporated town located about twelve miles east of Beaumont in Orange County, Texas, United States. In 1913, the town began to develop around the oilfield just west of Orange. After a major producing well was discovered, a post office was established for Orangefield in 1922.[1] The population level reached an estimated 1000 people by the mid-1930’s, but within the next two decades would decrease to about 500 by the early 1950’s. As of 1990, the estimated population was about 725.
