About

On April 26, 1977, Lakewood Village was officially incorporated as The Town of Lakewood Village, Texas. Located in the northern part of the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex region, Lakewood Village was originally envisioned and marketed as a golf course community that even boasted a runway for small engine planes. Over time, the Town has evolved and as of 2014the Town is zoned entirely residential and has transformed into a relaxed and quiet lakeside hometown. According to 2018 estimates, Lakewood Village has approximately 900 residents.
