About Yorktown

Tucked into the rolling countryside of DeWitt County, Yorktown offers a relaxed South Texas lifestyle with deep roots. Originally founded in 1848 as an early travel stop, the community grew around farming, ranching, and a blend of German, Czech, and Tejano cultures that still shape local life today. Situated at the crossroads of Highways 72 and 119, Yorktown gives newcomers an unhurried pace, plenty of wide-open space, and a friendly, small-town atmosphere.
