Located on the western shore of Lake Ray Hubbard, a popular 22,745-acre boating, fishing and general recreational lake on the East Fork of the Trinity River, Rockwall is known for its down home, family friendly community atmosphere.

Influenced by the construction of Lake Ray Hubbard as well as the city's close proximity to nearby Dallas, Rockwall has seen significant growth in the last 20 years and is currently home to nearing 20,000 residents- but still maintains that pleasant small town appeal. "Goliad Place," a quaint shopping village built from a grouping of early 1900's cottages, is an attraction for visitors and residents alike looking to relax and shop in a laid back turn of the century environment.

Rockwall offers comfortable living, all of Dallas' urban amenities just within arms reach combined with a laid back, lakeside view. The city is also known as a marriage Mecca in north Texas, as marriage licenses can be obtained in the city with relative ease.
