Welcome to Evant
Where the Highways Meet and Life Slows Down
Straddling the line between Coryell and Hamilton counties, Evant sits where U.S. Highways 84 and 281 meet—about 24 miles west of Gatesville and 16 miles south of Hamilton. It’s a true small town with a history that reaches back to 1855, when settlers first knew the spot as Langford Cove.
The town later took its name from founder Evan T. Brooks, a blend of his first name and middle initial—one of the more memorable stories behind a Central Texas town name.
Living in Evant
Small-Town Pace. Wide-Open Country.
Evant appeals to buyers who want space, quiet and a close-knit community. Properties in and around town range from modest homes close to everything in town to rural acreage and ranch land along the surrounding highways.
Families are served by Evant ISD—home of the Elks—and the town’s spot at the crossroads of two U.S. highways makes trips to Gatesville, Hamilton, Lampasas and Goldthwaite straightforward.
If you’re dreaming of a slower pace, a little land or a weekend place in the country, Evant deserves a closer look.
