Sand is a ghost town in Bastrop County, Texas, United States.
Sand is named for the sand of the Post Oak Savannah. A post office operated from 1898 to 1929, with Ernest J. Lawrence serving as postmaster. At its peak in the 1910s, it had a population of 35, but began declining from the 1920s. It was abandoned by 1946.[1] [2]
