Lucas is a city located in Collin County in Texas. The city’s population was 5,166 as of the 2010 census. An early settler by the name of Peter F. Lucas settled in the area in the 1840s. His son Gabriel opened a general store almost thirty years later in 1870. Gabriel Lucas was the reason of the town’s name. The town only grew cotton and corn in the first hundred years of its existence. The city had around 100 residents in 1947 but when Dallas started to grow, so did Lucas. Lucas gained its incorporation in 1970 and had an estimated population of around 1,500 by the 1980s. Six different school districts distribute Lucas.
