I’ve called this city home for 13 years, so I feel like I am able to give an Insider’s Guide to Downtown McKinney, TX Shopping. You might not even want to shop anywhere else after you experience Shopping in Historic Downtown McKinney! There’s so much to see and do right here in this place my family and I call home.
Located just 30 miles north of Dallas, McKinney offers visitors the perfect getaway destination, with its tree-lined streets, historic downtown, and tight-knit community. The City of McKinney is located in one of the northernmost areas of the metroplex and in Collin County. It is a fast-growing city of nearly 190,000 residents, yet with a friendly, small-town feel.
McKinney is also home to one of the state’s largest historic districts. These attributes prompted Money Magazine to select McKinney as is #1 Best Place to Live in America in 2014. From the fantastic charming boutiques, the delectable dining, the charming historic buildings and homes, you might not want to leave! As a licensed real estate agent, I can help you with your McKinney, TX home search.
