  Located 19 miles north of downtown Dallas, on US 75, Plano is truly a city of its own, not a suburb of Dallas. A nationally recognized public school system and a host of internationally known events such as the Plano Hot Air Balloon Festival, make Plano a popular pick for taking up residence.   Plano is home to many information technology and telecommunications companies. The city is proud to be the home of the world headquarters of EDS, with 10,000 employees, JC Penney, Frito-Lay, DSC Communications, PageNet and Dr. Pepper/Cadbury.   When the subject of housing arises, Plano is in a league of its own. For the past few years, the city has been in full bloom. Developers have taken advantage of the area's natural beauty and turned it into a homeowner's paradise. It has evolved into an exclusive Mecca for homeowners desiring the best that developers have to offer. Exclusive living, exclusive specialty shops, restaurants, parks and recreation.   Perhaps best known for its school system, Plano ISD has received national recognition for its outstanding system of 49 schools with an enrollment of approximately 40,500. Plano Fast Senior High School was recently named the Best High School in Texas for the second time by Redbook magazine. Plano Senior High School has received national recognition for giving more Advanced Placement exams than any other school in the country. Higher education is also available, with Collin County Community College and the University of Texas at Dallas. The Cox School of Business at Southern Methodist University has selected Plano as the site for the first-ever satellite campus for its program. |
