Keller is an affluent city located in the northwest portion of the Dallas–Fort Worth metropolitan area in the US State of Texas that advertises itself as “successfully balancing big-city comforts with small-town charm”. Its density of 2,200 people per square mile and plenty of natural land is complemented by its recently constructed town hall, municipal service center, and award-winning recreation and aquatic center. The 2010 census recorded its population as 39,627, which ranks modestly as 74th in the state.
Keller was settled in the early 1850s and became a stop on the Texas and Pacific Railway, named after John C. Keller, a foreman on the railroad. The wooded region around Keller attracted settlers because of the close proximity to the Trinity River, a supply of plentiful game and water, and the abundance of land for cattle raising and farming. Keller was incorporated on November 16, 1955.
Keller is primarily residential, home to very little industry, but features more than 300 acres of developed park land, 11 park sites and nearly 19 miles of hike and bike trails. [1] Nearly equidistant from Tarrant County College District in Fort Worth, The University of Texas at Arlington, Texas Woman's University and University of North Texas, both in Denton, the Keller Independent School District has 36 campuses serving more than 30,000 students.
