Folks come to Denton, Texas for many reasons—for college, for a job, for a gig, or for a visit—and end up making Denton their home. Denton is just one of those places “where everybody knows your name,” where it’s cool to get involved and a cryin’ shame not to know your neighbor. Denton has a small town’s feel for community mixed with a big city’s culture and flair. It’s why so many have dubbed us
“Little D.”
Whether you’re strolling the Square downtown or enjoying sweet tunes at our music festivals or eating at one of the new restaurants that opens every week (but seriously), Denton’s a lot of fun. Denton dwellers are of all ages, backgrounds, and cultures, and they’re always happy to tell you their stories or just point you to some good grub. Really, the people and the places make Denton what it is—the best little city to live in.
Why should I support local businesses?
As a consumer, you have the opportunity to impact the local economy and support people and places that make Denton great. Only in Denton’s goal is to first make you aware of these local businesses—who they are, where they’re located, and why they rock. We want to make these businesses more visible in hopes that the next time you decide to buy lunch or your mom’s birthday present, you might spend local. If you own a business that benefits Denton and want us to add it to our website, please submit your listing for review.
