Lucas is a Little Bit City, and a Little Bit Country
As a resident of Lucas, Tx for 25 years, I admit I'm a little biased. We've loved every minute of living in this town of about 8,000 residents. We moved here for the same reasons as the other residents.
Lots of people say they're fed up with the traffic and congestion of the city. They're tired of living one home on top of another. They want to feel like they can breathe so they start to consider moving further out.
At the same time, these same people eventually come to the conclusion moving further out means a longer drive to work, shopping, and all the things the larger cities have to offer. Just as importantly, they also want a quality education for their kids but the further out you move from the big cities the more the school systems struggle. A quality education is very expensive and the tax base just isn't there with rural property. What many people really want is a little bit country and a little bit city and that's exactly what Lucas has to offer.
Drive around Lucas and you'll see horses, sheep or longhorn cattle grazing but you'll also see new developments with multi-million dollar homes on 2 acre lots coming out of the ground. You'll find older, ranch style homes, some of which are being updated and some are being taken down for new homes. Lucas is in a slow transition as more and more people see the advantages of living here.
But the one thing you won't see in Lucas is apartments and Lucas wants to keep it that way. None of Lucas is zoned for apartments nor is there public sewer to support it. Lucas residents are extremely committed to preventing public sewer within the city except for the commercial area on the far west side.
The townspeople of Lucas are fully committed to preserving the quality of life they enjoy there.
