Granbury is the Hood County seat, organized around a historic courthouse square and Lake Granbury. The town square and nearby lakefront form different parts of its everyday geography, from downtown civic and cultural destinations to reservoir access. The city also maintains historic overlay districts around its downtown core.

### Places to know

**Granbury Historic Town Square.** A historic downtown district around the Hood County Courthouse.

**Lake Granbury.** The reservoir is a major geographic feature, with access varying by location.

### Check at the address, not the town name

- Check the city’s historic overlay map before exterior work, and verify lake access and shoreline rights for an individual property.
- School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: [TEA school district locator](https://tea.texas.gov/families-and-students/school-district-locator/school-district-locator?ref=tx.co), [FEMA flood maps](https://msc.fema.gov/portal/home?ref=tx.co), [county appraisal districts](https://comptroller.texas.gov/taxes/property-tax/county-directory/?ref=tx.co).
