Better served by a category than a list. Now that Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Farm to Market Roads in Texas (1–99) has closed as keep, we don't need two sets of lists for the same roads (and this set of lists predates the mass merges that created those lists). Also, these regions are arbitrarily defined. Rschen7754 03:24, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

• Delete - Redundant to the other lists. SounderBruce 03:43, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

Delete—per nom, these are redundant to, and less precisely categorized than, the other lists by number. Categories would be a better option as mentioned. Imzadi 1979 → 03:55, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

• Delete - Per nom. No need for these lists by region when we have lists by number. Dough4872 10:26, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
• Delete as redundant (and harder to use than the numbered lists), per nom. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 13:26, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
• Delete as redundant. A category would be superior to these lists, which, as the nom says, are grouped based on arbitrary geographic areas. – Epicgenius (talk) 17:37, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
• Delete as redundant to the numeric lists per above and also as somewhat arbitrary, as the definitions of the regions of Texas vary depending on the source. It is more useful for navigation for those FM/RM routes with sufficient standalone notability to warrant an article to be placed in the appropriate subcategories of Category:Transportation in Texas by county. --Kinu ^t/_c 19:38, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
• Delete Some of these areas are not well-defined — for example, some definitions of East Texas include the Houston area, while others do not. They are also redundant to the numerical-order lists recently kept at AfD. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 02:00, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
