Nearly
127,000 people call the city of Grand Prairie their home.
Incorporated in 1909, the city spans 80 square miles and
with 35 percent of Grand Prairie available for development
it has become a hotbed of economic growth. Grand Prairie is
home to Lone Star Park at Grand Prairie, a Class I horse
track that is in its 7th season, and Tangle Ridge
Golf Club, which was rated the twelfth best golf course in
Texas by Golf Digest. More than one million visitors a year
come to play, ski, fish, boat, picnic and camp at Joe Pool
Lake. Traders Village (a 106-acre flea market) attracts
another 3 million visitors a year to bargain hunt and power
shop. Grand Prairie offers other unique forms of
entertainment, such as the Palace of Wax and Ripley's
Believe It Or Not!
