More than 7,000 people commute to Colleyville to work each day, a figure the City Council noted is surprisingly high considering the population of 22,573.
The number surfaced in a daytime population analysis done to give leaders a picture of how many people are in the city during the day, a tool that can be used to help attract businesses and shape Colleyville into a destination.
With the 7,255 who commute in plus another 2,412 who live and work in the city and another 10,905 who are in the city but do not work, the daytime population comes to 20, 572, says the analysis by Catalyst Commercial of Dallas.
The city has 11,668 employed residents, which includes 999 who work at home.
