Pleasant Valley, in brief

Wikipedia doesn’t have a history of Pleasant Valley yet. The photos, dates and memories neighbors add here are how it gets written.

Pleasant Valley is a town in Wichita County, Texas, United States. It is part of the Wichita Falls, Texas metropolitan statistical area. The population was 357 at the 2020 census. Pleasant Valley is also referred to as "The rural country club of Wichita County", in part because of the high demand for land and above-average home prices. This includes Pleasant Valley estates and also Horseshoe Bend estates to the southwest.

Between the 2010 and 2020 censuses its population grew from 336 to 357 (+6%).
