History
Deer Park was founded in 1892 by Simon West. The town was named for a park of privately owned deer who lived in the area. A railroad station opened later that year and a post office followed in 1893.
The subdivision was established in 1893 and was the site of a Galveston, Harrisburg and San Antonio Railway station by about 1894. A Deer Park post office was established in 1893, discontinued in 1919, and reestablished in 1930. In 1896, the community, with a population of forty, had a hotel, a general store, and three resident carpenters. In the 1930s, an independent school district was established. By 1940, the population had fallen to twenty-five. By 1946, however, the area began to flourish as Deer Park became the site of refineries and toluol plants for the production of TNT. The population grew to 736 in 1950, to 12,773 in 1970, and is now approaching 30,000 residents. This growth has been fueled by the growth of the petrochemical industry as well as the growth of business along the Houston Ship Channel. Trinitrotoluene (TNT) is an explosive. ...
