Tyler is a good medical/shopping area. No far from Palestine. Lots of pigs, some deer, no turkey. I’m equal distance from Tyler and Dallas, I go to Tyler. Van Zandt county is where I live so I’m bias. Someone mentioned Schulenburg and Flatonia as well. Beautiful country down there. Oak and Pine here. Giant Live Oak and scrub there, less trees overall. Heavy Hispanic population here, more there. It’s different than Wisconsin for sure, I was there last February and found it beautiful but cold for a Texan.
