The History
How Flower Mound came to be.
The story behind this suburb, in plain language, as the Sharcom Realty Group team tells it to buyers who are just starting their search. Dates and figures are approximate and drawn from public histories; verify specifics before you rely on them.
Flower Mound was settled in the 1840s and 1850s around the grassy mound that gives the town its name, and grew slowly until Grapevine Lake's completion in the 1950s brought recreation and development.
Incorporated in 1961, it built out through the 1970s and 1980s as a series of master-planned neighborhoods wrapped around the lake.
Today it is one of the largest towns in Texas and a perennial high-ranking suburb by livability measures.
