Typically it is quite high, from 7.7 to 8.0, due to the very high calcium content. I've had it tested where I live in Dallas county, and it is one of the very best soils for agriculture. Most people don't like it because of the high clay content - it is very sticky when wet and very hard when dry. It shrinks and swells when the moisture levels change and large cracks can appear in very dry weather.
