According to the U.S. Census Bureau's findings, we trail only to Las Vegas in terms of growth (in cities over 100,000 pop.).  Now, that is some serious growth!  

From the sounds of it, John Kessel , executive director of Development Services, has this growth in mind as he plans for the future. 

"Everything we do is looking forward so that we're ready for growth.  We're not being caught on our heels or caught by surprise by the growth. We have a comprehensive plan that was recently updated and solid leadership in place guiding our growth."

In 2004, McKinney ranked at the top of the fastest growing cities between 50,000-100,000 citizens.

This trend in rapid growth shows that McKinney is attracting new citizens, as well as keeping people here for longer periods of time.  I guess people are finally getting the hint, McKinney, Tx is the place to live!
