Celina’s growth story is one of the most remarkable in the country. According to recent U.S. Census Bureau data, Celina was named the #1 fastest-growing city in America among cities with populations over 20,000. Since 2010, the city has grown from just over 6,000 residents to approximately 64,000 today. Despite its smaller size, the city welcomed more new residents than major metros like Seattle and Houston, highlighting the incredible momentum driving the community forward.
While Celina’s rapid growth has brought many changes, the qualities that have made the community special remain at the heart of what continues to attract new residents. The city’s small-town charm, open spaces, strong schools, local businesses, and welcoming atmosphere are all part of what makes Celina unique. As Keller Williams North Country agent Georgina Hennen puts it, “People want land, space, great schools, restaurants, sports, and that hometown feel.”
As Celina continues to grow, city leaders are focused on thoughtful planning to help preserve the character and charm that longtime residents value. Investments in infrastructure, public safety, parks, and essential services are helping create a strong foundation for the future while supporting the needs of both new and existing residents.
