in Mesquite. Mesquite is an old-fashioned, yet modern city with a
uniquely diverse blend of residential neighborhoods and business
communities nestled among acres of parks and open lands. Located
less than 20 miles east of downtown Dallas, Mesquite is rich in
history that spans more than a century.

advantage of all that Dallas has to offer as well. All of this, and
much more, makes Mesquite one of the most desirable locations in all
of Texas to live, work and raise a family.
