La Salle, Jackson County, Texas

La Salle is an unincorporated community in Jackson County, Texas, United States.

A town site was surveyed in 1924 and Bennett promoted a land sale that attracted a number of Poles and Czechs to the community.

Seven years later, citizens changed the name from Bennview to La Salle in recognition of the French colonization of Texas that existed in the area in the 17th century, and a new post office opened along with a school and general store.

The population fell to 75 in the late 1980s and remained at that level until 2000, when the number of inhabitants rose to approximately 103.
