Thank you for your interest in Bonham and Fannin County. The Bonham Area is becoming more and more a place people want to be – to visit or to live.

The City of Bonham is in the midst of an exciting time of growth and of reclaiming our history. We were designated a Main Street community in 1995 by the State of Texas. The results can be seen in the numerous restored buildings downtown.

Over the next few years we will be working to recover the original uniqueness and beauty of our downtown area. Heritage District improvements have began and four major phases are complete. In the heart of our downtown community at the Fannin County Courthouse is a brand new streetscape resulting in additional parking spaces, landscaping, trees and antique streetlights. Also completed is the three and half blocks of Main Street, including a new seventy-five car off street parking lot that is only a short stroll from downtown shopping.
