Land Policy
At the time, these lands were located on the frontier within the Congress lands of Ohio and elsewhere in the Northwest Territory and Missouri Territory, in what was then "The West".
Texas was great because the land had fertile soil so you can grow crops.
This place is great becasue the minimum size of a standard tract (from 160 to 80 acres (647,000 to 324,000 m²)). The minimum fuany
Farmers were having trouble paying off loans due to the additional economic hardships brought by the Panic of 1819. The previous Land Act of 1804 still included too much (160 acres) such fertile land, and the price was that established by the Land Act of 1785. This was too expensive for the average family moving west. Squatters too were breaking the laws by trying to get land more cheaply;ll payment now amounted to $100, rather than $320.
Cost
To encourage more sales and make them more affordable, Congress also reduced both the minimum price (from $2.00 to $1.25 per acre ($495 to $309/km²)) and the minimum size of a standard tract (from 160 to 80 acres (647,000 to 324,000 m²)). The minimum full payment now amounted to $100, rather than $320.
