The name Flower Mound was inspired by a 12 ½ -acre mound, 50 feet high by settlers in the 1840s. Its close proximity to Dallas and Fort Worth is very popular as a relaxing place to call home and a search for Dallas homes for sale should certainly include Flower Mound. Just 10 minutes from the Dallas Fort Worth airport and enough land in parts of Flower Mound for horse country makes it highly desirable.

Flower Mound is south of Denton and northwest of Dallas in south central Denton County, is a residential suburban community of 20,000 acres on the shore of Grapevine Lake. It was established soon after Sam Houston settled a tribal dispute in 1844 and Indian raids in the area ceased. Permanent settlers moved in, attracted by the quality of the soil, which was suitable for raising cotton, corn, and wheat and unlike many pioneer settlements in Denton County that were bypassed by the railroads in the late nineteenth century or unable to survive the Great Depression, Flower Mound maintained a steady population throughout the first four decades of the twentieth century and became a substantial farming and cattle-raising community. In the mid-1950s the town began to grow. The town had an estimated population of 275 in 1966 and 664 in 1968 and 1,685 in 1970, 4,402 in 1980 and 15,527 in 1990.
