The Colony- More than Just the City by the Lake

The Colony is one of those unique, almost unclassifiable cities. While the area has very deep roots, going back beyond the 1800’s, The Colony was planned, built and settled in 1972. The fact that the city was planned out, block by block, rather than having an organic growth has had little effect on the citizen’s love for their city. Like a few other cities in the country, The Colony shares the distinction of being a modern, planned community.

The Colony is a great place for many things, from leisure activities to business. You'll find that while they welcome businesses, they are a community completely devoted to their residents and fostering a sense of family between the city's residents.

Close to Greatness

From national sporting events to a thriving art scene, nightlife and culture, you'll find that living in The Colony and playing in Dallas is a wonderful thing.

No Need to Leave

While many residents certainly take advantage of the proximity of Dallas, there's no need to leave The Colony to find entertainment or relaxation. They offer a wide variety of things to do, from playing in Lake Lewisville to strolling the tree-lined streets of the city. If you're out for a walk, drop in some of the quaint shops and boutiques the area has to offer. Check out the local art galleries and museums, while you're at it. The Colony is rich in entertainment for the entire family, offering visitors and residents an incredible wealth of things to do.
