Its tree-lined streets, historic downtown, and close-knit community make it an inviting destination, despite the city’s population of nearly 215,000.Home to one of the state’s largest historic districts, McKinney’s character and slower pace stand out from the surrounding urban sprawl. This appeal earned McKinney the distinction of #1 Best Place to Live in America by Money Magazine in 2014, improving from previous rankings of #2 in 2012, #5 in 2010, and #14 in 2008.
