ALLEN

ABOUT ALLEN

This wholesome community was newly built for families. Allen ISD has the largest high school in Texas with an enrollment of 6,000 students. Their football stadium rivals professional operations with seating capacity for 18,000.  The Eagles were Football State Champs for 2014 and three other prior years.  But the entertainment isn’t all about Friday Night Lights.  Allen Event Center puts on major concerts and national shows. Hydrous Wake Park keeps the kids cool, as does KidMania, one of the largest handicapped-accessible playgrounds and spray grounds in Texas. Watters Creek offers fun times and shopping all in one. 


The Allen area was previously home to the Caddo, Comanche, and other indigenous peoples. The first immigrants from the United States and Europe arrived in the early 1840s.[7] The town was established by the Houston and Central Texas Railroad and named in 1872 for Ebenezer Allen, a state politician and railroad promoter. The railroad allowed sale of crops across the country before they rotted, causing a shift from the previous cattle-based agriculture. On February 22, 1878, a gang led by Sam Bass committed in Allen what is said to be Texas’s first train robbery.


From 1908 through 1948, Allen was a stop along the Texas Traction Company’s interurban line from Denison to Dallas. Allen was a small town of a few hundred residents when it was incorporated in 1953. Since this time, it has grown dramatically due to the construction of U.S. Route 75, the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, and the development of nearby Dallas and Plano.
