Lucas is no longer the best-kept secret in North Texas. When buyers fled to the countryside last year, it was an obvious destination.
The suburb is just 30 minutes from Dallas and seven minutes from Lake Lavon — and they loved it. They also told their friends. So, even though the pandemic pressures have eased, we are still seeing a steady stream of buyers headed to the greener pastures of Lucas. We predict it will continue.

In fact, one of the most interesting results of the pandemic has been the increase in the number of people looking to move. 56% of Americans plan to move in 2021, compared to just 35% that moved in 2020. Due to the shifting economy, rise in remote work opportunities, and desire to relocate to less densely populated areas, more than one in five Americans have either moved during the pandemic or knows someone who did.
