*Coppell, TX*

**Top 50 rank**: 32

**Population**: 39,787

This modern southern town, home to big employers like Amazon, The Container Store, and Clear C2, is less than a half-hour from Dallas. Still, Coppell has stayed true to its small-town roots, nurturing neighborly activities like block parties, a local choir, and two impressive community gardens.

Coppell has over 500 acres of park land and an aquatic center, and plans to make the town more walkable with a new outdoor shopping area. *\--S.M.*
