In the 1840s,
settlers from
Tennessee and
Kentucky began
arriving in the
Richardson area
which was
inhabited by
Comanche and
Caddo Native
American tribes.
Several of the
earliest
families
clustered around
an area later
named
Breckinridge in
honor of John C.
Breckenridge,
Confederate
Secretary of
State and
General, and
Vice President
of the United
States from
1857-1861. The
town was
situated near
what is now
Richland College
and consisted of
a general store,
a blacksmith
shop and the
Floyd Inn.
After the
American Civil
War, the new
railroad
bypassed
Breckinridge and
an area to the
northwest of
Breckinridge
became the new
center of
activity.
William J.
Wheeler donated
land for the
town site and
railroad
right-of-way,
but declined to
have the village
named in his
honor. Instead
the town was
named for
railroad
contractor E. H.
Richardson, who
built the line
from
Dallas to
Denison.
Richardson was
chartered in
1873.
Originally,
there were three
businesses: a
general store, a
post office and
a drug store. In
1908 the
Interurban, an
electric
railway, began
service north to
Denison, Texas,
south to
Waco, Texas,
southeast to
Corsicana, Texas
and west to
Fort Worth,
Texas. By
1910, residents
had seen their
first
telephone,
electric light
and gravel
street, and had
grown in number
to about 600. In
1914, a red
brick
schoolhouse,
presently home
to the
administrative
offices of the
Richardson
Independent
School District
(RISD), was
built.
Richardson, Texas, in Dallas
county, is 11 miles N of
Dallas, Texas. Part of the
surrounding Dallas metro area,
the city is not an isolated
city. Richardson is home to some
91,802 residents.
The
People and Families of
Richardson
In

Richardson had a median family
income of $72,876. More so than
most places, the people in
Richardson generally have good
jobs with good salaries. The
large segment of the population
in the city with spending money
keeps the city vital. Fewer
people in Richardson are poor
than in most places in Texas.
Impressively, having a college
education is normal in the city.
Home-based work is more common
in Richardson than in most
places. It's worth saying that
successful single guys are not
uncommon in the city.
Political Inclinations
George
W. Bush was the top money-getter
($113,885) among 2004
Presidential candidates in
Richardson. The Republican party
stood out in its ability to
raise compaign money in the
city.
Richardson Housing

a nice house, or any home in a
nice city, you usually need to

no different here.
