About us
Denton, Texas is a vibrant and growing community with many opportunities, no matter what your interest or passion. Denton is a unique cultural destination, where a small-city feel pairs with big-city amenities. A blend of history and culture creates a dynamic suburban environment, home to two thriving universities, a vibrant downtown, and a diversity of choices in employment, lifestyle, and neighborhoods. Denton is strategically located at the convergence of I-35E and I-35W, and is the northern tip of the “golden triangle.” The current population (est. 133,800) is rapidly growing, which has led to a focused effort to ensure the City’s infrastructure is adequate, now and in the future. Additionally, Denton is close to major airports, being only 25 miles from DFW International Airport, 35 miles from Dallas Love Field, and 20 miles north of Alliance Airport, and offers public transportation options (bus & rail) through the Denton County Transportation Authority. Denton is home to the University of North Texas and Texas Woman’s University. With a combined enrollment of more than 50,000 students, the universities bring in a variety of cultural, sports, and entertainment amenities to the Denton community. Just south of Denton is a campus for North Central Texas College, the oldest continuously operating two-year college in Texas. Denton Independent School District is the primary public education system and serves more than 27,000 students and 17 cities in a 180 square-mile district. Across Denton, there is a pulsating entertainment culture, featuring live performing arts venues, music and film festivals, museums, and historical sites. Additionally, Denton is home to 30 parks, featuring 300 acres of open space, three recreation centers, a water park and community swimming pools, and hike and bike trails throughout the city. Nearby lakes, hiking trails, and state parks also contribute to exciting outdoor recreation opportunities.
