Getting to know The Homesteads

The Homesteads is an unincorporated Johnson County community northeast of Alvarado and south of Mansfield. It was first separately identified as a census-designated place before the 2020 census. The community name describes a defined statistical area, while county and service-district boundaries govern day-to-day property questions.

Check at the address, not the town name

  • Confirm the water provider, wastewater system, emergency-service district, and access road for the lot; the census place name does not establish municipal services.
  • School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: TEA school district locator, FEMA flood maps, county appraisal districts.
