Henly, TX Real Estate
Through the 1880s and on into the 1900s the community's population never swayed much from 25. Although population remained steady businesses slowly moved away. In the 1930s and 1940s only two businesses remained and in 1952 the last business in Henly left. The post office was discontinued in 1965. Today Henly is considered part of Dripping Springs and shares its zip code. Dripping Springs Independent School District provides education for the children of Henly.

New friends and neighbors were moving to Henly. The residents were at first a little standoffish but as more people came to the area the old timers of Henly suddenly became popular locals who could share their knowledge and insights to these new residents.
