what age are you considered an adult in texas? at what age are you considered an adult in texas? what are the regulations for a 17 year old? I am 90% positive that the age to be considered an adult in the good ol state of Texas is 17. It depends... 17 to be dealt with as an adult in the criminal system (sometimes, they will charge you as an adult at a younger age if you commit a horrible crime - but that takes a judge's decision. Age17 is automatic).
