There is no place better in the Dallas area to live, work, play, and raise a family. As the oldest settlement in Dallas County, Farmers Branch is a community that is steeped in Texas heritage with deep roots but with it's eyes firmly fixed on the future. Known as the City in the Park, Farmers Branch is a first-ring suburb of Dallas that has the benefits of small-town charm but with direct access to the infrastructure and amenities of the DFW area. The City is focused on leadership in education, sustainability, innovative commercial development, and smart-city design.
