Question: What town is closest to the geographical center of Texas?
Answer: Brady claims the title “Heart of Texas” due to being 19.5 miles southwest of a marker along U.S. Highway 377 that indicates the geographical center of the state—closer than Brownwood, which is 24 miles northeast of it. However, the marker is about 5 miles south of the true geographical center, which is located on private property. From that point, both towns are about an equal distance away.
