Mina serves the heart of the town of Bastrop near Farm Street and the historic district, close to downtown, the Colorado River, and the pines, with established homes, bigger lots, and the walkable small-town character Bastrop is known for.

How to confirm your address is zoned to Mina
Use Bastrop ISD's official boundary lookup. The district publishes a find-my-school tool where you enter an address and it returns the assigned elementary, middle, and high school. That's the source of truth, not the real estate listing, which can carry outdated school data, especially in a county growing as fast as Bastrop.
Or ask me. Send me an address or a downtown Bastrop pocket you're considering and I'll confirm the zone, pull the current middle and high school on the path, and flag anything that affects your decision.
