Wow! We lived in Little Elm mid/late 90s and I can't believe it is nearly 22K people there now....and from what I hear the roads are no better. I like it out there (when DH worked near there), but dang.

F.M. 720 in Little Elm is eventually going to be four lanes as a new bridge project will be built over Lewisville Lake.

Many of those smaller towns mentioned are beginning to boom.
