About Us

Hickory Creek encompasses 15 square miles, the largest landmass of the Lake Cities. Located on one of Texas' most popular lakes, Lake Lewisville, the Town of Hickory Creek is a generous blend of parks and nature trails, bustling subdivisions and family farms, boat ramps and businesses. Residents enjoy the combination of a relaxed, small town atmosphere and a thriving business district. Just 30 minutes north of Dallas, Hickory Creek is a progressive area that maintains its picturesque surroundings.  

The population of Hickory Creek has grown from 219 at its 1963 incorporation to 3,044 as of the 2005 census. The availability of residential housing has also grown in the last several years. The most recent development added the subdivisions of Shore Haven, Lakeview and Glenview. Residential growth anticipated in the next several years could almost double the current population.

Commercial development has also exploded, which has helped Hickory Creek maintain one of the lowest property tax rates in the Lake Cities area. Hickory Creek is now home to Rave Motion Pictures, Wal-Mart, the new Cornelius Town Center, McDonalds, Texas Land & Cattle Company, Chili’s, Starbucks, Sherwin-Williams, Blockbuster, Domino’s Pizza, Sonic, Children’s Lighthouse, the Primrose School, Vista Academies, and many more. Retail growth is continuing with new development along FM 2181 and the I-35 corridor. The new Lake Lewisville Toll Bridge and proposed light rail will also bring additional growth in the next several years.
