    About Grayson County, Texas

    Grayson County, established in 1846 and named after Peter W. Grayson, attorney general of the Republic of Texas, occupies a strategic position along the Texas-Oklahoma border. This North Texas county has evolved from its frontier origins into a thriving region that perfectly balances metropolitan convenience with rural charm and recreational opportunity.

    The county seat, Sherman, has grown into a vibrant city with Austin College, founded in 1849, serving as its educational cornerstone. Denison, the county's other major city, holds the distinction of being President Dwight D. Eisenhower's birthplace—a heritage celebrated at the Eisenhower Birthplace State Historic Site, which draws visitors from across the nation.

    Lake Texoma dominates the county's northern geography and economy. Created by the Denison Dam on the Red River in 1944, this 89,000-acre reservoir ranks among the largest in the United States. The lake generates over $300 million annually in tourism revenue, supporting marinas, resorts, and countless recreational businesses. Striped bass fishing here is legendary, drawing anglers from across the country.

    The local economy has diversified significantly, with major employers including Texas Instruments, Texoma Medical Center, and a growing aerospace sector. Grayson College provides workforce training, while proximity to the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex—just 60 miles south—offers residents access to big-city amenities while maintaining the quality of life that North Texas living provides.
