McKinney

McKinney sits on the Blackland Prairie in North Texas, where the former prairie belt meets the rapidly growing Dallas–Fort Worth metropolitan area. As the county seat of Collin County, it retains a focused historic downtown around the 1897 Collin County Courthouse, now home to the McKinney Performing Arts Center. The city was founded in 1848 and named for Collin McKinney, a signer of the Texas Declaration of Independence. Nearby, the Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary interprets the region’s native habitats, while Chestnut Square Historic Village preserves relocated 19th- and early-20th-century buildings.
