The Day and Life of Lavon, TX
Lavon, TX in Collin County is an upcoming hotspot for growth and development. Located on SH78 in the northeast edge of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. Here you will find an almost paradoxical mixture suburban and country living. A city where Main Street looks more like a residential neighborhood than a business district. The claim to fame here is the “old bank” which ironically was never actually a bank.

What this town lacks in rich history, the police department of the 80’s, 90’s and early 2000’s makes up for. That history fostered a new beginning in how a Police Department should be run. Shout out to Chief Jones and all who protect and serve this community as the crime rate in Lavon is lower than that of the rest of the state.
