Celina City Trajectory

Celina is where you buy the future at today's prices — if you can tolerate the chaos of hypergrowth. The city is adding 30 new residents per day, deploying a $757M capital improvement plan, and has the largest school bond in Texas history ($2.29B). The DNT extension will connect Celina directly to Legacy West by Fall 2027.

The trade-off: you're buying into a construction zone. Roads, schools, retail — everything is still being built. The Costco won't open until late 2026. The Preston Road widening will disrupt traffic for years. PIDs are everywhere.

For families who can stomach the growing pains, Celina offers Prosper-adjacent quality at a 20-25% discount. You're betting that in 5 years, this will be an established suburb. Right now, it's still a frontier.
