Tow, Texas

Tow (/taʊ/, rhymes with "cow")[1] is a small unincorporated community in Llano County, Texas, United States.[2] Its population was 1,249 at the 2010 census.[citation needed]

Tow was a thriving community, until the central Texas drought that started in 2007. It then lost about half of its population, forcing many businesses to shut down.

As of 2018, Tow is more active now that the lake is full, and businesses once shut down have begun to reopen.
