Davilla (/dəˈviːlə/ də-VEE-lə)[2] is an unincorporated community in Milam County, Texas, United States.

In honor of Miguel Davila, who had obtained the original concession for the land in 1833, the community was established in the 1860s.

The property was acquired from the Davila estate by a surveyor by the name of Chamberlin, who then sold town lots with the proviso that no alcoholic beverages should ever be served in the village.

Davilla maintained some level of prosperity even after the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway bypassed the town by a distance of several miles in 1881, driving some of the inhabitants elsewhere.

Three hundred fifty people lived in the area in the middle of the 1880s, while Davilla had three churches, three gristmills, three cotton gins, and a steam sawmill.
