Three Rivers, TX

Tucked into the South Texas brush country roughly halfway between San Antonio and Corpus Christi, Three Rivers gets its name from the nearby meeting of the Atascosa, Frio, and Nueces rivers. It is a quiet, close-knit town of around 1,500 residents right along U.S. 281. Living here means enjoying a slower, friendly pace while still having convenient highway access to larger city amenities whenever you need them.
