Buffalo Springs is an unincorporated community in Clay County, Texas, United States.

In 1864, 25 people built an outpost and attempted to create a farming community, marking the beginning of settlement in the area.

In that year, the post office opened in the ensuing settlement, which was named for Buffalo Creek located nearby.
