Bailey's Prairie is a village in Brazoria County in the southeastern portion of the U.S. state of Texas.
Established in 1818, the village is named for the pioneer James Briton "Brit" Bailey (1779–1832).
Texas State Highway 35 runs through the town, leading east 5 miles (8 km) to Angleton, the county seat, and west 8 miles (13 km) to West Columbia.
13.1% of all households were made up of individuals, and 4.6% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.
