City of Rockwall
Rockwall was founded in 1854 and is the County Seat of Rockwall County. Rockwall is approximately 22 miles east of downtown Dallas on Interstate 30 with a population of just over 25,000. Rockwall has an advantage of being near the Dallas Metroplex without losing its rural atmosphere, and proudly maintains one of the highest-ranking school systems and one of the lowest tax rates within the State of Texas.
Situated on the east shore of Lake Ray Hubbard, residents can enjoy exceptional fishing, boating, and sailing, in addition to the 330 acres of parkland and dedicated natural open space, 2 community pools, three golf courses, and an award winning Parks and Recreation Program.
