== Fun facts ==
* During the 1920s a theater opened in town and a community band was formed. The town gained some notoriety for its unique holding tank - a 7-foot-diameter (2.1 m) wooden tub with bars mounted on a wagon frame. When full, the contraption was driven to Tyler for emptying.
* When the Kansas and Gulf Short Line Railroad extended its route from Tyler to Lufkin, it passed through Bullard and built a depot there. This attracted new residents and business. In 1890, the town had 200 residents and most essential businesses, plus a doctor and a telegraph office. The railroad was renamed several times - becoming the St. Louis, Arkansas and Texas Railway and then (1892) the Tyler and Southwestern Railway. 
* There's not a whole lot Bullard has to offer. It has the American Freedom Museum, dollar stores, Brookshire's, NAPA Auto Parts, Subway, a few local restaurants and businesses, a landing strip, a few public battle fields, a sports complex, Anytime Fitness, a few gas stations, and not much else.
