Eastland County, Texas

Eastland Location Map Texas

Eastland County is right in the heart of Texas. It’s about halfway between Fort Worth and Abilene. It has a lot of small towns. Eastland is the biggest. I-20 cuts through the county so it brings some business, sure.

The county has some quirky claims to fame. Ever heard of Old Rip? He’s a horned toad that supposedly lived in their courthouse cornerstone for 31 years. There’s even a statue of it.

But it’s still pretty quiet. Oil booms have come and gone. They definitely left their mark, though. Lake Leon is a popular spot. Good fishing, they say. It’s slow living out here. Some folks like it that way.
