Immigrants began arriving in the Peters colony area around 1850, but a community was not created until 1874. Two communities sprang up in the area: Embree, named for physician K. H. Embree, and Duck Creek, named for the local creek of the same name. A rivalry between the two towns ensued as the area began to grow around the Santa Fe Railroad depot.
Eventually, to settle a dispute regarding which town should have the local post office, Dallas County Judge Thomas A. Nash asked visiting Congressman Joe Abbott to move the post office between the two towns. The move was completed in 1887. The new location was named Garland after U.S. Attorney GeneralAugustus Hill Garland. Soon after, the towns of Embree and Duck Creek were combined, and the three areas combined to form the city of Garland, which was incorporated in 1891. By 1904, the town had a population of 819 people.
In 1920, local businessmen financed a new electrical generator plant (sold by Fairbanks-Morse) for the town. This later led to the formation of Garland Power and Light, the municipal electric provider that still powers the city today.
On May 9, 1927, a devastating F4tornado struck the town and killed 15 people, including the former mayor, S. E. Nicholson.
Businesses began to move back into the area in the late 1930s. The Craddock food company and later the Byer-Rolnick hat factory (now owned by Resistol) moved into the area. In 1937, KRLD, a major Dallas radio station, built its radio antenna tower in Garland, and it is operational to this day.
The city places a significant emphasis on health and wellness, with the Garland Health Department leading public health initiatives. Residents have access to a range of facilities and programs promoting well-being. The Surf and Swim water park is a popular spot for recreational activities, contributing to an active and healthy lifestyle. Join local fitness centers and gyms to participate in exercise programs, fitness classes, and strength training. Some popular options include Planet Fitness, Garland Gym, and Anytime Fitness. Garland's commitment to community health is evident in its various parks and green spaces, such as the serene Spring Creek Forest Preserve.
Population: 250,431 (2024). ZIP codes: 75040-75049. Area codes: 214, 469, 945, 972. Elevation: 551 ft (168 m). Area: 57.1 sq mi (147.9 km2).

What is the history of Garland, TX?
As early as the mid-1800s, settlers began arriving in what is now Garland. A letter dated April 9, 1937, opens with, “The planting of the seed that developed into Garland was planted on the banks of the Duck Creek...” Originally known as Duck Creek to early settlers, a fire, and a poorly located post office created a rival community named Embree. Men began carrying guns where they hadn’t before, and young people were chastised for interacting with people from the opposite encampment. After consultation with Congressman Joe Abbott, the two towns reached a compromise with a more fairly located post office and a new name.
