Willow Park

Willow Park is a Parker County city along the Interstate 20 corridor. Its municipal history describes the earlier Bankhead Highway route and the city’s incorporation in 1963, helping explain the relationship between older residential areas and the east–west road network.

The city’s parks and trails planning includes proposed connections through the East Parker County Trails initiative. These are planning resources, not a guarantee that every planned trail is complete or open. City maps and current project information are the practical sources for a particular street or address.

Check at the address, not the town name

• Check current trail maps and project status before assuming a continuous route to a neighboring community.
• Confirm the parcel’s city jurisdiction and utility service, particularly for addresses close to adjoining Parker County cities.
• School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: TEA school district locator, FEMA flood maps, county appraisal districts.
