Lancaster texas real estate
Lancaster
Lancaster is one of
the oldest communities formed in north central Texas. Originally the
land was settled by members of Peters Colony. August 30, 1841, the
President of the Republic of Texas signed a contract which
authorized 600 families to move into the Lancaster area. The first
group of settlers derived from the Greene County, Illinois area.
Lancaster is only
15 minutes from the downtown area of Dallas Texas. Lancaster has
grown greatly from their original days and though they are a small
town, Lancaster is nestled near all the conveniences of a big city.
The best thing about living in Lancaster is the small town appeal
with the comfort of all the amenities of the big city right next
door.
The town prides
itself on its small town community appeal, as well as running an
efficient, cost effective platform which helps the community
continue to grow.
