Situated about 30 miles southwest of Fort Worth, Texas, the City of Cleburne is the county seat of Johnson County. The city's population is approximately 27,00 people.

The city was named for General Patrick Ronayne Cleburne, Confederate Army Officer. General Cleburne was one of the South’s most aggressive battlefield commanders. Called the Stonewall Jackson of the West, he commanded a division of Texans and Arkansans in the Army of Tennessee.

With a strategic location just a short drive from the major economic engine that is the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, Cleburne has been identified as a great place for businesses, small and large, to locate or relocate. With many incentives such as tax abetment, an enterprise zone, and a solid community infrastructure, many commercial and industrial enterprises are succeeding in Cleburne. The city's major industries are retail trade, transportation, manufacturing, and healthcare.
