Cooled vs 1,263 in 2024; still first-wave

Melissa is the smallest of the eight by population and 2025 one-unit count, and it is still an install page: 29,969 people (+115.6%) and 553 one-unit permits. Permits cooled hard from 1,263 in 2024; growth did not vanish (+14.5% last year). This sits on the US-75 / SH-121 seam between McKinney and Anna.

Cooled, not done

Dropping Melissa would leave a hole between McKinney and Anna. Last year’s 1,263 new houses are now occupied streets whose owners will search this city name for a replacement. That is still install.
