Allen is a dynamic and
fast growing community close to the conveniences of the
Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, but also the relaxation of the
country. It is located in Collin County just north of Plano and
24 miles north of Dallas right off U.S. Highway 75.
Collin County was the
11th fastest growing county in the nation between 1990 and 2000.
Allen's population more than doubled during that time. The town
is presently attracting a young to middle-age work force mainly
in the computer and communication fields. Most residents commute
to work in Plano, Richardson and North Dallas.
Today, Allen is a
family-oriented community with an excellent school system and
lovely planned sub-divisions with swimming pools, tennis courts
and golf course views. If you are looking for a great deal on a
beautiful
new
home
in the north Dallas area, look no further than Allen, Texas!
