Springtown, TX

Located about thirty miles northwest of Fort Worth, Springtown offers a relaxed small-town feel right on the edge of the countryside. The town originally grew around natural freshwater springs in the mid-1800s, and today it attracts residents who want room to spread out without being too far from the city. At the center of town, the historic square and community park serve as familiar gathering spots for local festivals, weekend strolls, and community events.
