In 2025, McKinney officials issued permits for a mix of residential and nonresidential developments that reached more than $1.5 billion in construction value.
The overview
That total was driven by a record-breaking year for nonresidential construction value added to the city, according to McKinney’s 2025 annual development report. Development Services Executive Director Michael Quint gave a brief overview of the report during an April 7 McKinney City Council work session.
“The city of McKinney continues to experience strong growth,” he said.

“Anywhere from 1,500 to 2,000 building permits is a good sustainable amount for the city of McKinney,” he said.
