Why Melissa...

Melissa traces its beginnings back over 150 years ago. While remembering and honoring our past, embracing small town charm and sensibilities, we have positioned ourselves for quality and managed growth in the coming years. Melissa is located in Collin County, one of the nation's fastest-growing and most prosperous counties, and is on Central Expressway/US Hwy. 75, just two exits north of McKinney.

As a result, some of the area's finest homebuilders and developers have settled here. Builders and buyers alike see the potential and appreciate the forward looking vision of our City leaders.  Our community focus on education, the development of the Melissa ISD, and the commitment to foster and maintain a family-friendly environment help make this the perfect place to be in the long run.
