Seguin (pop 28,854) residents live by the motto “ On the Road to Success” reminds those who move here that even with its charming small town style, the city is still very much a place on the move toward growth and change.
One of the oldest towns in Texas, it is steeped in history, built along the Old Spanish Trail used by early explorers, and along the Guadalupe River. Named for Col. Juan N. Seguin, this community was first developed by a group of Texas Rangers.
New industries arriving after World War II laid the groundwork for the companies of today, which make steel, electronic products, mowing equipment, and more, providing a solid industrial base for the city.
Just fifteen minutes from downtown rests the beautiful Lake McQueeney. Boating and fishing are popular on Lake Placid and Meadow Lake.
Children attend the Seguin Independent School District.
