History

The population of Realitos had reached a grand 400 people in 1890, four years after the first post office was established there. The population peaked when an estimated 800 were living there just two years later in 1892. The population decreased and numbers like 225 people in 1914 appeared. In the 1960s, Realitos still had a running school, but it consolidated with Benavides in the middle of the next decade. Many buildings remain in the small, unincorporated community today including a closed pool hall, store, and gas station.
