Cities

In Texas, cities are either "general law" or "home rule" cities. Cities governed under general law have only specific powers granted by state law. A city with a population exceeding 5,000 may seek home rule status by voter approval ; said status allows more flexibility in local governance.
Although some municipalities in Texas refer to themselves as "towns" or "villages", these names have no specific designation in law.
