Incorporation of the City

Parker was incorporated as a city on March 22, 1969. Since then, many city improvements – including an administration hall facility, fire station, police station, pump station, and various road and drainage improvement projects – have been completed.

Current Parker

Parker is proud to offer our citizens country living at its finest. Our farming and animal husbandry roots can be found everywhere. Even though our population has increased to over 3,500 persons, one can still find spacious lots for homes uncommon to the atmospheres of more densely populated adjoining cities.

Parker retains the beauty and atmosphere found only in the country, with close-by city conveniences such as shopping malls, high-quality Plano and Allen schools, fire and police protection, city water, and environmental concerns for waste recycling.
