The ground is the first thing to know. In a sample of 49 places around the centre of Taylor County, 17 sat on soil rated high or very high for shrink-swell, and 1 of those was very high. The commonest soils were Sagerton, Oplin and Tillman. Clay in those ratings swells when rain soaks it and shrinks as it dries, and that movement can raise one part of a slab or pier and drop another. The sample covers the area around the county's centre, not every town or street.
