Floresville, Texas
Floresville is a city in Wilson County, set in the brushy ranch country of South Central Texas along the San Antonio River about 27 miles southeast of San Antonio.

The town serves as a trade center for the ranches and farms of the region and lies within commuting distance of the San Antonio metropolitan area.
