Poverty Knob is a modest summit located in Johnson County, Texas, near the city of Mansfield and approximately 20 miles south of Arlington. Rising to an elevation of about 725 feet (221 meters), it stands as one of the lesser-known high points in the area. Despite its unassuming stature and minimal prominence of 20 feet, Poverty Knob holds a place in local topography and is recognized on the Mansfield USGS topographic map. The surrounding area is characterized by gently rolling terrain typical of North Texas, making it a point of interest and a nice little climb for those exploring the region.
