About Carmine

Carmine is a quiet, pint-sized community in Fayette County, set right along Highway 290 between Austin and Houston. With fewer than 300 residents, it moves at an easy rural pace just minutes from the bustling antique scene in neighboring Round Top. Local students attend the close-knit Round Top-Carmine school district, and roadside stops like the Texas Basketball Museum give the town its own distinct flavor. It is a peaceful slice of Central Texas for anyone seeking wide-open spaces without straying too far from major metro areas.
