In north-central Texas, Collin County’s fourth-largest city is Allen, Texas. With an incredible location just twenty-five miles north of downtown Dallas, Allen consistently ranks among the nation’s best for its safety, affordability, education, and quality of life. In fact, Niche graded the city A+, Money magazine ranked it second of the “Best Places to Live in America” and second “Best Place to Launch a Career,” and CNBC named it Texas’ “Best Suburb.”
Allen is a well-established community incorporated in 1953, though settled back in the 1840s, and inhabited long before the first immigrants arrived. Originally, it was the Houston and Texas Central Railroad that ran alongside Allen, today it is U.S. Interstate 75. Both of these significant transportation arteries contributed to the vibrance and growth of Allen. Today Allen has over one hundred and three thousand citizens with a median age under thirty-five years. The city also boasts its own school system, Allen Independent School District, which educates more than twenty-one thousand students and has a high school graduation rate of ninety-six percent.
