Talpa is an unincorporated community in Coleman County, Texas, United States.[1] According to the Handbook of Texas, the community had an estimated population of 127 in 2000.

History

Talpa was said to be named for a large catalpa tree in the area. Its status as a switch station on the Santa Fe Railroad caused the town to develop into a farmer's market. There were 254 people served by 16 businesses in 1940, which went down to 122 residents, three businesses, and a post office in 1980. The population increased slightly to 127 residents from 1990 through 2000.[2]

Although it is unincorporated, Talpa has a post office with the zip code of 76882.[3]

On March 17, 2008, an EF0 tornado struck Talpa and was reported by an off-duty NWS employee.[4] On April 10, 1979, an F3 tornado was recorded near Talpa, causing extensive damage to houses but causing no injuries.[5]

Climate

The climate in this area is characterized by hot, humid summers and generally mild to cool winters. According to the Köppen climate classification system, Talpa has a humid subtropical climate, abbreviated Cfa on climate maps.[8]
