Mesquite is a former town in Borden County, Texas, United States.

A school, established in 1905, served the area until 1952, after which the building appears to have been abandoned.

Today, all that remains at the site of Mesquite are a Church of Christ, several scattered houses, and the abandoned schoolhouse.

[2] The rest of the town appears to have been subsumed by private farms for cropland.

The nearest large community is Lamesa, approximately 15 miles (24 km) to the southwest.
