The read

Why Lewisville

Denton and Dallas counties

Lewisville sits at the south end of Denton County, with a small piece in Dallas County, where I-35E meets SH 121. It had about 140,900 residents in January 2025 (NCTCOG), a number that jumped after the city finished annexing Castle Hills in November 2021, adding almost 3,000 acres and about 18,000 people. Lewisville Lake, formed in 1954, and three A-train stations give it both recreation and a rail link to Denton and DART.

The lesson for buyers: Lewisville homes moved faster than most nearby cities this year. Over the six months to October 2026, the median home went from listing to contract in 23 days, compared with 35 in Denton and The Colony, at a median of $389,500. Get fully underwritten before you tour, and check whether the home is in the Denton County or Dallas County part of the city, because that changed the 2025 tax rate by about 0.35 points.

Schools

Lewisville ISD provides most public education in the city, and its district also covers The Colony, Highland Village and parts of Flower Mound, Carrollton, Frisco and Plano. Lewisville High School uses a main campus plus the Killough and Harmon campuses for 9th and 10th graders. Attendance zones are set by address, so confirm each home with the district.

Lewisville ISD

Property taxes

For tax year 2025 the combined rate was about 1.72% on the Denton County side (city 0.419009, county 0.185938, Lewisville ISD 1.1178) and about 2.07% in the Dallas County portion. On a $390,000 home that is roughly $560 to $675 a month before homestead exemptions. The city's own rate is one of the lower ones in the area, so the county line matters more than the city line here.
