Indian Creek, Texas

Indian Creek is an unincorporated community in southern Brown County in west-central Texas, United States. According to the Handbook of Texas,[citation needed] there were no population estimates available for the community in 2000. It is located within the Brownwood, Texas micropolitan area.

Indian Creek was named for its position along the banks of Indian Creek. In 1876 the local general store was repurposed as a post office, and by 1879 the community had two stores, a cotton gin, and a blacksmith shop. By 1945, there were two businesses and a church.

Indian Creek is located on Farm to Market Road 586, 10 mi (16 km) south of Brownwood in southern Brown County.

In 1876, Indian Creek's first school was built. It continued to operate in 1945. Indian Creek joined the Brookesmith Independent School District in 1948-49. It continues to be served by Brookesmith ISD today.

Howard Payne University was started in Indian Creek in 1889, but later relocated to Brownwood.
