Some reasons why relocating in west Plano may make a lot of sense for you and your family ...

It is hard to know exactly where to start when describing west Plano. Some of the metroplex's most beautiful homes and neighborhoods are in west Plano, its schools usually rank among the best in the Dallas Fort Worth area, and both The Shops at Willow Bend and The Shops at Legacy, two of the area's most popular upscale shopping areas, are located there.
Companies such as EDS, J.C. Penney, Frito-Lay and Dr. Pepper Snapple have built their world headquarters in west Plano and there are numerous events like the Plano Hot Air Balloon Festival for area residents to enjoy. With all of this, and more, it is not surprising that Plano has been named by Money magazine as one of the two best places to live in the western United States. West Plano is located in Collin and Denton Counties.
