D'Hanis (/dəˈhɛnɪs/)[2] is a census-designated place[1] in central Medina County, Texas, United States.[3] It is part of the San Antonio—New Braunfels, Texas Metropolitan Statistical Area. The population was 785 at the 2020 census,[4] up from 548 in 2000.[3] It was primarily settled in the 1800s by German emigrants.[5]
D'Hanis is located at the intersections of U.S. Route 90, Farm to Market Road 1796 and Farm to Market Road 2200[3] on Seco Creek. The community is sometimes called New D'Hanis to distinguish it from the site of old D'Hanis one mile to the east.[3]
