Wylie, 24 miles northeast of metropolitan Dallas in southern Collin County, was one of the first cities in the nation to offer fiber optic lines direct to homes, offering high-speed data transmission for TV, Internet, and telephone service. The city recently broke ground on a new $40 million municipal complex, including a recreation center, a library, and city offices.

The Woodbridge development consists of residential neighborhoods, multifamily developments, and retail surrounding an 18-hole golf club.
