A Hometown Near Everything
Fate sits in the heart of Rockwall County, just about 30 minutes east of Dallas and minutes from Lake Ray Hubbard, giving you that rare “close to everything” convenience without losing the small-town feel.  It’s the kind of place where the pace is a little calmer, the skies feel a little bigger, and the community feels genuinely welcoming.
Here, you’ll find a hometown atmosphere paired with the everyday amenities families want—great parks, local events, and a growing mix of nearby dining, shopping, and entertainment throughout Rockwall County. 
Get Out and Explore
Getting outside is part of life in Fate. The city maintains multiple parks and recreation spaces—from playgrounds and walking trails to places to picnic, play, and cool off in the summer. Whether it’s a splash pad day at Robert Smith Family Park or an evening walk under the lights on the 3/4-mile trail, it’s easy to build time outdoors into your routine.
And when you want a little more nature in your day-to-day, Edgewater leans into that lifestyle with fishing ponds, parks, and hiking trails placed throughout the neighborhood to make gathering outside feel effortless.
