Settled in the early 1800's, this area of Texas offers a rich history enjoyed by residents and tourists. Founded by a Scottish Highlander and known for its fertile lands and famed Little River, this community came to be known as Highland Branch to pay homage to the original settlers of the area and to the modern day rich agriculture and farming community.

Highland Branch sits neatly in the middle of the highly sought after Texas Triangle, positioning the community for growth.  The Texas Triangle is a region of Texas that contains the state's five largest cities including Austin, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio. While purchasing real estate in the major metro areas of The Texas Triangle has its own challenges, many are looking to rural areas just outside of these bustling metros to find quality schools, amenities and a rich sense of community.

Recently, the area has attracted more attention with the construction of the nearby Samsung semiconductor plant and future UT Campus in Taylor, TX as well as the new 1,200 megawatt natural gas-fueled power plant at the former Alcoa facility in Rockdale.

Residents of Highland Branch will enjoy the serene and peaceful surroundings combined with the convenient access of nearby metro areas.
