Blue Ridge, TX

united states

Blue Ridge is a small Texas city about 50 miles northeast of Dallas, accessible via Highway 78 from McKinney or Highway 5 from Princeton. The rolling prairie landscape and rural setting make it a quiet escape from metro traffic. Most visitors arrive via US-75 north to McKinney, then east on Highway 78. The town operates one of Texas's smallest school districts, with fewer than 200 students in a single campus serving all grades.
