With strong population growth continuing into the new millennium, the city's official web page gives a 2006 population estimate of 89,000. Lewisville is one of the older incorporated cities (incorporated in 1925) in the northern area of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, but it remained a small rural town with just a few thousand people as late as 1960.The earliest white settlement in what is now Lewisville occurred in the 1840s. Basdeal Lewis purchased the land around which Lewisville would be formed and named the town after himself.Lewisville's growth is due in part to its proximity to Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, a few miles to the city's south.
