About Emory

Emory serves as the easygoing seat of Rains County, located in East Texas right between Lake Fork and Lake Tawakoni. Named after nineteenth-century Texas lawmaker Emory Rains, the town has kept its small-town charm and quiet rural roots over the years. Today, life here centers around a classic courthouse square, friendly local businesses, and easy access to some of the best fishing in the state. It is a peaceful, welcoming community with plenty of open space, well-suited for retirees, anglers, and anyone looking to slow down.
