Crystal City is a city in and the county seat of Zavala County. The population was 7,138 at the 2010 census. The town is on the edge of the Chihuahuan Desert in southwest Texas. It continues to exist because of the happy confluence of a railroad and the abundance of water in the form of wells and springs. The county is far enough south that winter vegetables can be grown for northern markets. Onions were the first crop introduced, but spinach replaced the onion crop and now Crystal City is “Spinach Capital of the World.”
The first annual spinach festival took place in 1936 but was suspended during WW II and not resumed again until 1982. The Spinach Festival maintains an office in the downtown. Also downtown, in front of the city hall, is a statue of Popeye. It was erected in 1937, with the blessing of the sailorman’s creator.
