Post

Post is the county seat of Garza County, situated in West Texas at an elevation of about 2400 feet (730 meters) amid farmland and residential areas. The town spreads across flat terrain with a straightforward grid layout and typical small-town infrastructure.

The settlement began on January 1, 1907, when it was planned as an intentional community for farming and economic growth in West Texas. This founding vision shaped how the city developed over the following decades.

The city reflects its farming roots through local events where residents gather to celebrate traditions rooted in rural life and agricultural practices.

Post connects to other Texas cities via major highways, making it easy to reach from neighboring areas. The county courthouse and local businesses provide basic services visitors might need while exploring the town and surrounding farmland.

The founder was a prominent businessman who designed this as an experimental settlement with innovative ideas about community planning. This vision made it stand out among typical frontier towns of that era in Texas.
