Visitor Information

Balch Springs, Texas
Small-town living next to the big city!
If you love the feel of the country but need the closeness of the big city,
we welcome you to visit Balch Springs!

HISTORY
The city was founded around 1870 when the family of John Balch settled in the area and found three springs, one of which was never dry.  The perennial spring was kept clean and bricked up and became a gathering place for families in the area to fill their buckets and talk.  In 1900 the area had only a cemetery and scattered farms.  Several years later a school was built and named after the springs.
