Once a quiet stop on the railroad, Magnolia has grown into a thriving community that still knows how to slow down and savor the good stuff: front porch mornings, hometown diners, and neighbors who show up for each other.

Magnolia, Texas, United States
Originally known as Mink, the town earned its current name in honor of the magnolia trees that grace the area, and fittingly so. Magnolia is a place full of life, color, and resilience. With a population just under 3,000 in city limits (and over 130,000 in the greater Magnolia area), this “greatest little town” balances the peace of country life with the perks of community connection. The historic Magnolia Depot stands as a symbol of that legacy, hosting civic events and local gatherings all year long. Each winter, Magnolia becomes a true holiday destination thanks to the famous Gullo House Christmas Display, 5.5 acres of twinkling lights and family-friendly magic created by beloved local car dealer Tony Gullo. But the spirit of giving and celebration runs year-round.
Magnolia proves you don’t have to be a big city to offer big opportunities. Its thoughtful growth, friendly culture, and steady investment make it one of the most desirable towns in Montgomery County.
