Highland Village began as a lakeside retreat for Dallas professionals. Many built weekend homes along the water, then chose to stay. That history gives the city a settled, residential character. Most residents own their homes and put down long roots here.

A Brief Look at Highland Village History

Highland Village grew from ranch land along Lewisville Lake. The Lewisville Lake dam was built in 1957, and the lake filled fast. Newcomers from Dallas arrived to build weekend homes on the water. They loved the lake life and made their homes permanent.

About one hundred lakeside residents voted to incorporate on February 14, 1963. They wanted their own community and feared annexation by Lewisville. Robert Duvall, a local rancher, became the first mayor. The city counted 516 residents in 1970. Growth followed the opening of DFW Airport, reaching about 16,000 today.

Schools and Community Life in Highland Village

Families move to Highland Village for its schools, its parks, and its lake. The city sits within the Lewisville Independent School District. Three elementary schools and one middle school sit inside the city limits. High school students attend Marcus High School in nearby Flower Mound.

Parks and the lake fill the weekly calendar here. Unity Park, Pilot Knoll Park, and Copperas Branch Park give residents green space. Doubletree Ranch Park anchors community events through the year. The Shops at Highland Village bring open-air dining to the heart of town.

Gum health and tooth loss matter more as adults age. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports 42 percent of adults over 30 have gum disease. That share rises with every decade of life.
