Hudson Oaks

Founded in 1978, Hudson Oaks lies five miles east of Weatherford on U.S. Highway 80 and Interstate Highway 20. With its nonexistent property taxes, Hudson Oaks has truly become a “boom town” for commercial real estate, business development, and home building in the past 30 years.

Originally, the city came about when the Oakridge and Hudson Heights neighborhoods united to fulfill their visions of low taxes and a government adhering to the desires of the residents. Through retail-generated sales tax and fast-paced development, the city of Hudson Oaks has been able to realize those dreams and has become home to many long-term sources of revenue and other successful business developments such as several car dealerships, restaurants, a Walmart, a movie theater, a water park, a John Deere dealership and more recently, a new H-E-B supermarket that opened in May of 2019.
