    From Wikipedia:
    Anna is a city in the U.S. state of Texas. Located in Collin County, its population was 16,896 at the 2020 U.S. census.
    Following the American Civil War, the Houston and Texas Central Railway resumed laying track north from Corsicana and passed through the area in 1872. By the time Anna was platted in 1883, it had a population of 20, two stores, a steam gristmill, and a Baptist church. A post office also opened in that year. In 1885, the railroad built a depot.
    By 1890 the town had a population of nearly 200. Anna was incorporated in 1913, with John L. Greer as first mayor.
    Local historian Chester A. Howell compiled a brief history of Anna for inclusion in a book, A Town Named Anna,[5] that was given to those who attended the Anna school homecoming on October 19, 1985. A one-page list of errata to correct some minor errors was added in 1989. In 2018, the Anna Area Historical Preservation Society published, "The Spark That Ignited The Town Of Anna" (ISBN 9781799137610), a collection of stories and pictures of early Anna, Texas.
    The Houston and Texas Central Railway extended its track in a north-south route several miles east of Mantua in 1872. Mantua soon declined in favor of the new railroad towns of Van Alstyne (Grayson County) and Anna which developed here in early 1880s.

      Not a suburb of Dallas. Different county, Dallas is about a little over an hr away depending on traffic. Anna is closer to Oklahoma than Dallas.

      @@Brieannas21 Anna (and Collin County) is considered within the DFW Metroplex which encompasses many counties that is far and wide. Dallas is only a 40 minute drive but depending on what part of Dallas you are considering, Anna is closer to the OK Border.

    Anna is one of the best kept secrets for easy living and affordable housing. The downtown area has been targeted by the city council for major renovations and new businesses. I believe the old city building and attached land is going to be leased to a new Brewhouse. Should be interesting to see this city grow up. I moved here three years ago and absolutely love it!
