Alvin is located in northeastern Brazoria County, just 23 miles from
Houston, Texas and minutes away from the sandy beaches of the Texas Gulf Coast. Alvin was incorporated in 1893 and was built by the cattle, rice, and oil economy during
those times. Alvin is also the hometown of MLB legend Nolan Ryan, Froberg's Farms,
Stanton's Grocery, Bayou Wildlife Park, and much more! Come for a visit - you'll be glad you did!
