Fresno supposedly comes from a settler’s hometown of Fresno, California. Fresno's land was part of a Mexican land grant in 1822. The area was once part of a huge cotton plantation complex. Fresno is located in northeastern Fort Bend County. Fort Bend County operates the Mustang Community Center in Fresno which is a 5-acre community center. The area is heavily Democratic in nature, and due to population increases in the area, Fresno has switched from Fort Bend County Precinct Two jurisdiction in 2003 and is now located within Fort Bend County Precinct One. A Houston Chronicle article from February 25, 2007, titled "Straddling urban, rural in Fresno" highlights the unregulated nature of Fresno.
