Sachse (from the German word for "Saxon") straddles Collin and Dallas counties and is part of the Dallas and Fort Worth metroplex. William Sachse founded the city in 1845 when he purchased 640 acres from Collin county. Years later, the railroad misspelled the local depot as "Saxie," which can still be found on older paperwork referring to the town with that name.

As of 2019, Sachse had an estimated population of around 26,046. It occupies 9.8 square miles and sits at 547 feet above sea level. Lake Ray Hubbard is east and south of the city, with Lavon Lake to the north.

You’ll find plenty of excellent dining options in Sachse, including options for American food, Mexican, Southwestern, and plenty of Texas-style barbecue.
