Sanctuary, TX

Sanctuary is a small, peaceful community in northeastern Parker County, located just off Highway 199 about sixteen miles from Weatherford. Incorporated in the early 1980s, the town offers a quiet country atmosphere characterized by spread-out properties, open skies, and plenty of breathing room. It is the kind of place people move to when they want a quiet rural setting without being completely isolated.

Local children attend schools in the neighboring Azle Independent School District. Because Sanctuary is almost entirely residential, everyday errands, grocery runs, and dining out mean taking a quick trip down Highway 199 into Azle or toward Lake Worth. For homebuyers looking for acreage, low traffic, and an easy drive into the greater Fort Worth area, Sanctuary offers a calm, laid-back spot to put down roots.
