Summary[edit]

Description
English: These images show three boom-burbs, Irving, Carrollton, and Plano—along the north-eastern margin of the Dallas Metropolitan area. Between August 31, 1984 and August 4, 2009, each of these suburbs grew explosively, filling in the patchwork of agricultural lands to the north and west of Dallas. Irving expanded westward to the Dallas-Fort Worth airport and northward to North Lake. Carrollton grew north-west toward Lake Lewisville, while Plano completely filled the territory between two tree-lined creeks.
