📰 BRIEF

North Richland Hills was born from a 1953 dairy-farm subdivision after annexation was denied

Clarence Jones's 268-acre dairy farm subdivision became the City of North Richland Hills in 1953 — after residents tried to annex to Richland Hills and were denied. The 500-resident farm became today's NRH. Source: TSHA Handbook of Texas, City of NRH.
