With nearly 46,000 residents, a median household income of $111,090, and two of the largest stores of their kind in the world, The Colony has become a place where businesses, and careers, are growing.

Spanning 433 acres along SH 121 (Sam Rayburn Tollway), the project includes over 3.9 million square feet of retail, entertainment, dining, and residential space.
