Welcome to the small city of Fruitvale, located in Van Zandt County. The name Fruitvale was chosen in 1901 after a petition by local fruit growers. Nestled along U.S. Highway 80 between Edgewood and Grand Saline, Fruitvale offers a peaceful, rural atmosphere just 12.5 acres in size. Experience the charm of life on the outskirts while still being within reach-Dallas, Texas is only about an hour's drive away, depending on traffic and the time of day.
