Workforce Focus: Site Selection & Quality Of Life

Community involvement and access to a rich variety of activities and amenities have climbed the list of factors for site decisions.

Bonham, Texas: Big D To Little B In Under One Hour

One of the boomtowns of the Texoma region, the city of Bonham offers natural beauty, recreational facilities, lifestyle amenities, and unparalleled opportunity. The city benefits from exceptional transportation links enabling the swift movement of traffic between Bonham and Sherman via Highway 82, and Dallas-Fort Worth via Hwy 121-Sam Rayburn Freeway.

The new 16,000-acre Bois d’Arc Lake, pictured below, has been a key element in moving housing forward in the area. Lake lots are selling as soon as they are put on the market.  A smaller lake, Lake Bonham, has been settled for several years. Its quiet lifestyle appeals to many who have moved to Bonham to get out of the hustle of Dallas, while still having quick access to the metro when they want a shot of some big-city excitement.

Bonham is a proud partner in the Texoma Partnership — a consortium of Bonham, Sherman, Denison, and Gainesville. The combined force of these rapidly growing communities oozes economic strength, including massive projects such as Texas Instruments’ $30-billion expansion in Sherman. The accompanying graphic illustrates the interconnection of these communities.

A further economic driver for the city is Jones Field Airport, which offers the mobile CEO a 4000’ newly resurfaced runway and enhanced facilities that include a full-time mechanic, fueling facilities, ground transport, and a well-appointed pilot’s lounge.

Coming enterprises and hundreds of pending housing opportunities ensure that the city of Bonham will continue to move toward a bright future.
