Welcome To Your New Apartment In Flower Mound

This unusually named and sizeable Texas town is a suburb of Fort Worth and Dallas. With a population of 64,669 (it's a growing community!) the town is named after the large 12.5-acre earth mound believed by some to an ancient ceremonial burial ground of the Wichita Indians. Now the mound is privately owned and protected from developers. The town has grown by leaps and bounds since the 1970s, when there were only a few thousand people gathered like a frontier village. The frontier spirit is still alive among the residents of Flower Mound: have a chat with some of the locals using our LocalTalk.

Getting Around And Getting Comfortable

The town of Flower Mound is largely spread-out along the shore of Grapevine Lake, with neighborhoods extending out towards the nearby areas of Lewisville to the northeast, Coppell, and Grapevine just on the other side of the lake. The Dallas Fort Worth International Airport is twenty minutes away to the south by car. The two cities are both about an hour away in that same general direction, more or less. Rail Service with the Dallas Area Rapid Transit or 'DART' and the Trinity Railway Express connects you to the downtown in both places; ideal if you are a commuting for business or just want to hit the big city for an exciting weekend adventure. However...Flower Mound has alot of things to keep you occupied...when it comes to 'things to do' or just how to get whatever you need to make a home for yourself in town once you have your apartment, check-out the town's official website for business listings, to activate your utilities, local art organizations, schools, updates about town events, and how to adopt a pet!
