The city of Denton is the county seat of Denton County, Texas in the United States. Its population was 113,383 according to the 2010 census, making it the eleventh largest city in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. Geographically, it is situated 38 miles south of the Oklahoma–Texas... border and 39 miles northwest of Dallas. Denton is home to two state universities, the University of North Texas, the largest university in North Texas, and Texas Woman's University, a historically single-sex college completely co-ed since 1994. Altogether, over 45,000 students participate in courses at the two universities. The presence of these two large universities leads to Denton being characterized frequently as a college town. A Texas land grant led to the formation of Denton County in 1846, and the city in 1857. Both were named after pioneer and Texas militia captain John B. Denton. The establishment of the two universities helped distinguish the city from neighboring regions. As a result, educational services, as well as retail trade, play the largest roles in Denton's economy.
