Welcome to Flat
Quiet Country Living Just Outside Gatesville
Flat is a small, unincorporated community in Coryell County, located along State Highway 36 and FM 931 about 10 miles southeast of Gatesville. It’s the kind of place where the land does most of the talking—open skies, rural roads and room to spread out.
The name has a story of its own: residents first applied for a post office as “Mesquite Flat,” and when that name was turned down, they simply shortened it to Flat. The post office opened in 1897.

Rural Roots With Easy Access
Flat is a great fit for buyers who want acreage, privacy and a country setting while staying a short drive from Gatesville. Properties in the area lean toward rural homes and land, with the Fort Hood boundary just a couple of miles away.
Students attend Gatesville ISD, and the former Flat schoolhouse now serves as a community center—a nice reminder of the area’s small-community spirit.
If you’re looking to build, keep livestock or simply enjoy more breathing room, Flat offers a quiet place to land.
