About Falls City

Located about forty miles southeast of San Antonio along the San Antonio River, Falls City is a quiet Karnes County town of roughly 500 residents. Polish settlers established the community around the turn of the twentieth century, creating a cultural heritage you can still see today at Holy Trinity Catholic Church. Positioned right along U.S. Route 181, the area offers peaceful rural living with a straightforward drive to larger hubs like Floresville and Karnes City.

Community life here revolves around family, local agriculture, and the Falls City Independent School District. The school system brings in students from town as well as neighboring rural areas like Hobson and Cestohowa, with school sports and parish gatherings serving as the main social focal points. With its deep ranching roots, South Texas energy heritage, and close-knit neighbors, Falls City offers a calm and traditional small-town setting.
