History
McKinney was named for Collin McKinney. On March 24, 1849, William Davis, who owned 3,000 acres where McKinney now stands, donated 120 acres for the townsite. Ten years later McKinney was incorporated, and in 1913 the town adopted the commission form of government. For the first 125 years of its existence, McKinney was the main commercial center for farmers in the county. Farmers were provided with flour, corn, cotton mills, cotton gins, a cotton compress and a cottonseed oil mill. In 1970 McKinney surpassed Plano in size and population and has been growing ever since.

US75 and US380 run through McKinney. Collin County Regional Airport is also located there.
