Provident City, Texas
Provident City is a ghost town in the far southern panhandle of Colorado County in the U.S. state of Texas. The former settlement is located along County Road 190. The town was first settled through a land promotion scheme in 1909 and enjoyed a brief heyday. When it was obvious the hoped-for railroad would never come to town, people began moving away. The post office closed in 1953 and most of the land was bought up for ranching. The town no longer exists though the original hotel survives in private hands. Reaching the site requires driving on a gravel road from the nearest highway.
==Geography==
The Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) locates Provident City at 〔 which is near the intersection of County Roads 190 and 248 in Colorado County. The former town is southeast of Hallettsville in Lavaca County via FM 530 and County Road 17. After County Road 17 crosses into Colorado County it becomes County Road 190 and intersects with Country Road 248 within a short distance.
