Midlothian TX

At the turn of the 20th century, Midlothian was known as one of the nation’s leading cotton-growing regions. Now, it is considered the Dallas-Fort Worth area’s “Southern Star.” Although its agrarian lifestyle is no longer integral to the town’s continued well-being, the natural beauty of Midlothian is no less inspiring. Officially recognized by the Texas Film Commission as a film-friendly community, Midlothian is known for its progressive and accommodating attitudes that are especially welcoming to newly relocated companies and families. With a Business Expo every February and industries such as Gerdau Ameristeel, American National Power, and MidTexas International, the town encourages new industrial and commercial neighbors so that it may maintain its strong, diversified economic base. Midlothian offers its outdoor-loving residents 11 area parks, including the Mockingbird Nature Park, a 62-acre spread complete with a hiking trail, butterfly garden, bluebird nest boxes, and a native grass area. Other local attractions are the Midlothian Sports complex that covers 25 acres of land and features a football field with a quarter mile track, baseball fields, tennis courts, a basketball court, sand volleyball courts, and many other amenities. Families living in Midlothian enjoy the town’s beloved annual events such as the Spring Fling Arts & Crafts Festival, Hot Air Balloon Festival, Fall Festival, and 5K Downhill Dash. Midlothian’s ideal location provides convenient access to the employment, entertainment, and metropolitan life style of the DFW area but is removed enough from the congestion of the Metroplex for enjoyment of its pastoral atmosphere.
