About Thorndale
Thorndale actually has a history of packing up and moving. Back in the 1880s, the town's buildings were relocated two miles down the road into Milam County to sit right along the new railroad tracks. Named after the thorny mesquite and prickly pear native to the area, it grew into a steady farming hub. Today, situated on U.S. 79, Thorndale offers a relaxed Central Texas pace with historic downtown storefronts, deep community roots, and an easy drive to neighboring spots like Taylor and Round Rock.
