Welcome Fellow Citizens,

This is a great time to be living and working in the north Dallas area because of the convenience and quality of schools, industries, public services, leisure amenities and transit options. In Carrollton, we enjoy a variety of family-friendly resources, award-winning parks and sports complexes, and outstanding public safety services.

Carrollton was recently named one of “America’s Top 100 Places to Live” by Relocate-America. Our community has also been named a “Kid-Friendly City,” “Tree City USA” and “Texas’ Safest City.”

118,700 citizens call Carrollton ‘home.” They enjoy the diversity of neighborhoods, excellent schools, and convenient libraries, Indian Creek Golf Club, tennis, recreation center, swimming pools, senior center, historic museum and Elm Fork Nature Preserve.

Carrollton also has a ‘home advantage’ for being a business-friendly community because of our prime location. The 38-square mile community is surrounded by major highways, three rail lines intersecting in the Old Downtown area, and a Foreign Trade Zone designation. As DART light rail service arrives in 2010, Carrollton will become a major transit hub in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

Together our city government, community organizations, businesses and citizens are creating a dynamic future. We are envisioning a renaissance from a suburban to an urban community. As these plans become realities, new possibilities will be available for your families and businesses.
