Leave it up to Frisco to make headlines again.
Frisco was the nation's fastest-growing city last year, according to U.S. Census Bureau data released Tuesday. McKinney wasn't that far behind, ranking third in the Census Bureau's Info.
One thing that did surprise me was a couple of other North Dallas Cities in the top 25. Lewisville , Fort Worth, Carrollton and Denton were also included.
Frisco claimed the top spot among cities with more than 100,000 people this is by a 6.2 percent population increase during a 12-month period starting in July 2008. McKinney, scored a 5.5 percent jump since July 2008.
I am happy to say thata big focus in my real estate business is focusing on these two cities. Frisco homes are selling very quickly over the past couple months and most new home builders have no available homes. As for McKinney it is in the same boat. For instance, Craig Ranch in Mckinney, Texas has added three new builders (KHOV, Beazer Homes and a National Builder soon to be announced) in the past 3 months after years of stagnant home growth and many builders leaving the development alltogether. Frisco and McKinney remain as the two cities that over the past decade had the country's biggest population growth, numero 1 and 2. Where u at Uptown or M Streets?
A total of 102,000 residents were in Frisco in 2009 according to the data, compared with fewer than 34,000 in 2000. Pull out your calculators and you will find a 204% Jump! Wow!
In 2009, McKinney's population was nearly 128,000, up from about 54,000 in 2000 - that would be a 135% increase. not too shabby.
This has only helped the whole metroplex of DF-Dub. The area added more residents than any other metropolitan area in the country, both in the last year and the past decade, according to census data released in March 2010.
Credit the population growth to cost of living and a steady and stable increase in home prices in comparison to the rest of the nation.
So in conclusion, there is a lot of things happening in Collin County, Texas. If you are looking for a new home in Frisco or a new home in McKinney, give Brad Holden a call at (469) 733-2723 or visit my website at homes for sale Frisco.
