Why relocators keep choosing McKinney
Four states, four different reasons to leave — each one maps onto something McKinney is building right now.
Best market, priced like one you can afford
~14% of all TX arrivals come from CA, saving ~$672/mo on housing. McKinney offers the #1-ranked U.S. housing market — at a fraction of the cost.
A second airport, a second career runway
18,000+ VA→TX relocations since 2020 as federal jobs shift. McKinney's new commercial airport adds independent infrastructure of its own.
A downtown that's growing, not shrinking
Chicago outmigration is driven by taxes and winters. McKinney's $10M downtown renovation and new amphitheater deliver culture, usable year-round.
Now you can actually fly home
~9% of TX arrivals come from FL. New nonstop routes to Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Orlando & Tampa mean flying home just got easier.
