About The Area:
Paris, Texas is the second largest Paris in the world, with some 13 cities and communities scattered throughout the United States with the same name.
The city was named "Best Small Town in Texas" in 1998
With a city population of 25,000 plus an additional 23,000 residents in the county, the population base serves as the hub for healthcare and retail
for Northeast Texas and Southeast Oklahoma.

Once noted for its agriculture economic base where cotton was king, Lamar County is the home to three noted Fortune 500 companies-Campbell's Soup,
Kimberly-Clark Corporation and Sara Lee Bakery. With a diverse industrial base, some 5,500-6,000 jobs are linked to these and smaller companies in the
city and county.

Speaking in Paris several years ago, noted radio commentator Paul Harvey described the place we call home as "Where tomorrow fell in love with
yesterday and side by side they lived happily ever after."

Our community is graced with dozens of vintage homes and unique architecture which sets the stage for a thriving community and a contemporary
lifestyle. An array of cultural events, historical, scenic and recreational sites and community activities along with a rich selection of youth events
makes this a great place for young families to raise children and older citizens to spend their retirement years!

In addition, you'll find:
· Two 18-hole golf courses; one nine-hole course
· Lakes throughout Northeast Texas and Southeast Oklahoma for boating, fishing, camping recreation (including Pat Mayse Lake, Lake Fork, Lake Crook
and Beaver's Bend State Park in Southeast Oklahoma.)
· Multiple industrial parks for a growing business environment
· Regional junior college with recognized technology programs and health education opportunities
· Our own 65-foot- tall Eiffel Tower complete with a red cowboy hat!
