Editing Danbury, Texas (section)

==Geography==
Danbury is located northeast of the center of Brazoria County, next to Flores Bayou. It is {{convert|7|mi|0}} northeast of Angleton, the county seat. According to the [[United States Census Bureau]], Danbury has a total area of {{convert|2.5|km2|order=flip}}, all  land.<ref name="Census 2010"/>

In 2006, the average elevation was {{convert|21.4|ft|m}} above mean sea level (MSL), which reflects a {{convert|0.168|in|mm|adj=on}} negative deviation compared to a 1998 study. This decrease is believed to be caused by the extraction of groundwater (9% of total declination), the extraction of petroleum products (88% of total declination) with a probable calculated seasonal difference in soil moisture accounting for the remainder. At the present rate of change, Danbury will lose approximately {{convert|2.18|in|mm}} of elevation per 100 years, which is a rate 42 times faster than similarly situated areas.{{Citation needed|date=April 2014}}
