Trent is a small West Texas community where open skies meet easy living, set along I‑20 between Abilene and Sweetwater. Residents appreciate the unhurried pace, wide views punctuated by wind turbines, and quick drives to work, shopping, and medical care. Being part of Taylor County keeps essentials close while preserving a distinctly local feel, whether you’re chatting with neighbors after a ballgame or watching a dazzling sunset from your porch.
Families are served by the Trent Independent School District, a close-knit PK–12 district that emphasizes individual attention, community involvement, and well-rounded academics. Friday night lights still matter here, and school events double as town gatherings—an easy way to plug in and feel at home.
Weekends in Trent can head in any direction. Explore trails and spring-fed pools under the shade of oaks at Abilene State Park, meet giraffes and big cats at the Abilene Zoo, or step into aviation history at Sweetwater’s National WASP WWII Museum. Military ties run deep in the region thanks to Dyess Air Force Base, adding economic stability and unique community partnerships. With affordable homes, room to spread out, and fast highway access, Trent offers a practical base for workdays and adventures alike.
