The answer depends on whether you're asking about United States District Courts (Federal courts) or state courts. If you're asking about US District Courts, the answer is 1, no matter where you live. Many states have more than one US District Court, but it's unlikely that the boundaries between their jurisdictions will split a county.
If you're asking about a state's District Courts, then the answer depends on which state your Henderson County is in. There are 5 states with a Henderson County.
If it's in Illinois or Tennessee, the answer is zero; neither state has a court named "district court" (different states use different names for their various levels of courts).
If it's in Kentucky or North Carolina, the answer is 1: Henderson County District Court.
If it's in Texas, the answer is 3: 3rd District Court, 173rd Distict Court, and 392nd District Court

There are a number of trial courts in the Texas court system. The primary trial courts are District Courts, County Courts, Justice Courts, and Municipal Courts. The jurisdiction of each type of court varies from county to county. District Courts are the courts of general jurisdiction in the Texas court system, and they may hear any civil or criminal case. Generally, District Courts hear cases beyond the jurisdiction of other courts, such as felony crimes, civil cases for large sums of money, contested probate cases, and family cases, such as divorce. Every county has at least one District Court, and some have several. Some smaller counties share District Courts. County Courts may be of three different kinds - County Courts at Law, Constitutional County Courts, and Statutory Probate Courts. County Courts at Law hear misdemeanor criminal cases and civil cases for under $100,000. Constitutional County Courts are also known as County Commissioners' Courts, and may have limited judicial functions in counties that also have County Courts at Law. Statutory Probate Courts, in the counties where they exist, have jurisdiction over most probate matters. Justice Courts and Municipal Courts have limited jurisdiction over minor criminal offenses and minor civil cases, depending on the county.

It is a convoluted systems with two different approaches both Civil and Criminal. Perhaps that is why corporations like ENRON loved the system. It might be the best state for an attorney to practice in if they are worth their salt.
Texas does not have a separate "Family Court"; family cases are heard by Family Division of District Court in most districts, and in Family District Court in a few districts. Even when a court is called Family District Court, is can hear other types of cases. If a District Court serves only one county, then family court could be called "by county" for that county. But many TX District Courts serve more than one county, so their family courts also serve more than one county. Details and contact information for all TX courts may be found at the related link below.
There are 94 district courts in the US.
