Denton County is located north of Tarrant County and northwest of Dallas County and contains the cities of Denton, Lewisville, Flower Mound, and parts of Carrollton, Coppell, Frisco and several other suburbs. Denton County is approximately 958 square miles and has a total population of roughly 887,000 as of a 2019 US Census estimate. As the population has grown, new land has been developed into master-planned neighborhoods and the landscape in many areas has changed from rural to suburban. Several small towns in Denton that had populations of a few thousand less than 20 years ago are now thriving suburbs with their own dynamic mix of public and private schools, retail and commercial development, new transportation infrastructure and lifestyle amenities for its residents.
