Blue Ridge balances wide-open skies with neighborly routines that make everyday life feel welcoming and unhurried. Set in Collin County, it offers quick access to the shopping, healthcare, and dining of McKinney, the growing retail corridor in Princeton, and the historic downtown of Farmersville. You’ll find a mix of family-owned cafés, feed stores, and community gatherings that keep local traditions alive.
Families are drawn to the strong public schools in Blue Ridge ISD, known for attentive teachers, career and technical education, and spirited athletics that bring the town together on Friday nights. Smaller class sizes and hands-on programs—from ag sciences to robotics—give students room to thrive.
Outdoors, residents head to Lavon Lake for boating, crappie and bass fishing, and lakeside picnics. Cyclists and joggers enjoy the tree-lined stretches of the Chaparral Trail beginning in nearby Farmersville, part of a regional path network. Weekend farm stands, seasonal festivals, and youth sports keep calendars full without sacrificing that peaceful, country backdrop.
Housing spans acreage homesteads, new-build cul-de-sacs, and renovated in-town bungalows, with room for gardens, workshops, and hobby farms. For continuing education and workforce upskilling, Collin College’s Farmersville Campus is a short drive away. If you’re planning a move, Agent Pronto can quickly match buyers and sellers with a trusted local real estate professional who knows Blue Ridge inside and out.
