The name refers,
quite appropriately, to three communities that sit geographically
in the crest of the Dallas metropolitan area.
Talk to residents and
business owners in
Addison,
Carrollton, and
Farmers Branch , and they will tell you that the Metrocrest is
more than just the physical top of this dynamic region; the
Metrocrest is tops in business activity, residential living, arts
and culture, entertainment, recreation and quality of life.
Collectively, the
Metrocrest encompasses more than 51 square miles, with a combined
population of approximately 130,000. The region borders with
Dallas, Irving, Grapevine, Lewisville, The Colony, Plano and
Coppell.
The Metrocrest
communities are more than "suburbs" of Dallas. They are an
economic and business center and in their own right, providing
vital jobs and resources. The Metrocrest supports a dynamic
business and industry base, including more than 258
manufacturers. With almost 2,000 acres of parks, numerous lakes,
nearby shopping centers, restaurants, cultural and entertainment
centers, the Metrocrest is an ideal location to live and raise a
family.
