About the Township

A community worth
exploring.

Texas Corners is an unincorporated community nestled within Texas Township, Kalamazoo County — one of the fastest-growing and most livable communities in all of Southwest Michigan. First organized as a township in 1837, the area has gracefully evolved from an agricultural settlement into a destination defined by independently owned businesses, world-class natural spaces, and a genuine sense of neighborhood pride.

The business district along Q Avenue serves as the social and commercial heartbeat of the community. Within just a few blocks you'll find craft breweries pouring award-winning ales, specialty food shops sourcing from local farms, grooming studios, home builders, golf simulators, and veterinary care — all operated by people who live here and care deeply about the place they serve.

What makes Texas Corners truly rare is the combination of convenience and nature. Residents and visitors can walk from a coffee shop straight onto a trail system that winds through hundreds of acres of protected forest, wetland, and prairie. That balance — vibrant local commerce alongside unspoiled natural land — is simply hard to find anywhere else in Michigan.
