Of the top 10 fastest growing cities in the United States of America, an astounding number ... 9 ... of them are located right here in the lone star state. 9 out of 10, that says a lot about the legendary appeal of this epic state.

Numero uno is about 40 miles north of Dallas and has seen an amazing 143% increase in its population in only a 3 year span.

Celina, Texas, a city about 40 miles north of Dallas, earned the top spot as its population grew by more than 143% between 2020 and 2023. As of July 2020, the city had a humble population of just over 17,800. By July 2023, that number had swelled to more than 43,300, according to Census Bureau estimates. - nbcnews

A strong economy, good quality of life and safety were among the things that are drawing all of these folks to Celina along with the fact that the city offers small town coziness along with all of the big city stuff that can be found in nearby Dallas.
