Princeton, Texas is a lakeside city known for being community-minded and neighborly. This small, close-knit Dallas suburb is located in Collin County. It offers residents quality public schools in a safe atmosphere, next to the natural beauty of Lake Lavon. It is considered to be one of the best suburbs in Texas to raise families. The city motto, "Naturally Home," embodies all that Princeton represents.
First settled as farmland, Princeton, formerly called Wilson's Switch, began to grow when the Greenville to McKinney railway line made its way through the area around 1881. The city is located on the northern end of the 22,000-acre Lavon Lake, one of North Texas's largest and most popular recreational lakes. Lavon Lake features more than 121 miles of shoreline with access from Princeton and neighboring cities like Wylie and Farmersville.
