Plano: Toyota, Legacy West, and the Rise of North Collin County
Plano is a Collin County city north of Dallas, with approximately 289,000 residents. The community grew from a small agricultural settlement founded in the 1840s into one of the fastest-expanding suburbs in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex during the 1980s and 1990s. Corporate relocations accelerated that growth. J.C. Penney moved its headquarters to Plano in 1992, Frito-Lay has operated its corporate center here since 1985, and Toyota Motor North America completed its relocation from California to a new $1 billion campus in Plano in 2017.
The Legacy West development, situated near the Dallas North Tollway, combines office towers, apartments, retail, and hotels on the site that had once held the EDS headquarters founded by Ross Perot. Liberty Mutual, JPMorgan Chase, and FedEx Office all maintain substantial operations in the area. The planned community of Legacy Town Center, developed in stages beginning in the 1990s, served as a prototype for mixed-use suburban design replicated elsewhere in the Metroplex.
Plano Independent School District operates more than 70 schools and has been recognized for its academic performance and facilities. The Arbor Hills Nature Preserve on the western edge of the city protects 200 acres of native prairie and hardwood forest.
