In the City of Alma, we are defined less by boundaries on a map than by the sense of shared values our residents hold dear.

Small town values, guided growth, cultural and natural heritage are just a few of the core principles that make the City of Alma a wonderful place to call home. 

Alma is located just close enough to Dallas to enjoy big city convenience and amenities without losing the ability to enjoy the beautiful Texas countryside.
