When Dallas didn’t annex University Park and its 3.7 square miles, it became a city in 1924 and proudly named University Park with Southern Methodist University’s as its inspiration. The calming importance of tree-lined streets and lovely parks in University Park became an upscale suburb and home for many people who love to expand their knowledge horizons. It is now the home for over 25000 residents with exceptional living standards.
