Our Take

McKinney offers solid school quality and a median income above the state average, making it attractive for families and commuters. Walkability and transit options are poor, and the commute to Dallas is long, so it’s best for those willing to drive. The flood risk is low, but hidden costs like property taxes and commute expenses add up.
