Anna was platted in 1883 and named for Anna Quinlan, daughter of a Houston and Texas Central Railway superintendent. It incorporated in 1913, and its depot is described as the oldest extant railroad station in Texas. US 75 runs along the west side of town, about 18 miles north of central Allen.
Growth came late and fast. Anna had 8,249 residents in 2010 and 16,896 in 2020. The Census estimate for July 2025 is 35,245, up 105.7% since April 2020, and Anna ranked No. 5 among the fastest-growing U.S. cities of 20,000+ from 2024 to 2025 (Census, Vintage 2025). Neighboring Melissa ranked No. 4.
Newer, entry-price homes
Census ACS 2020–2024 gives Anna a median build year of 2012. About 24.1% of homes were built in 2020 or later, 33.7% in the 2010s and 33.0% in the 2000s. 78.5% are owner-occupied and 92.2% are single-family detached. The median value of owner-occupied homes, $351,700, is the lowest of the towns covered here.
That spread suggests two kinds of door calls. Homes from the 2000s are old enough for a second set of springs or a replacement opener; Fixr puts opener life at about 10 to 15 years. Newer homes tend to need adjustments, rollers or a first spring. A tune-up can catch both early.

Permits and paperwork
Anna's Development Services handles building permits. Ask your installer or the city whether a door replacement needs one. New garage doors carry a wind-pressure rating label. Ask the installer what your city requires and keep the label.
If you sign a contract at your home, Texas law (Bus. & Com. Code ch. 601) and the FTC Cooling-Off Rule may give you until midnight of the third business day to cancel; look for the cancellation notice. Repairs you asked for may be treated differently.
Anna, TX garage door questions
Is it worth repairing a builder-grade garage door in Anna?
Often, yes. A broken spring, worn rollers or a failed opener can usually be fixed without replacing the door. Replacement makes more sense when sections are badly bent or you want insulation or a different style. Ask for a written estimate for both if you are unsure.
Do I need a permit for garage door work in Anna, TX?
Anna's Development Services handles building permits, and the city's website appears to offer a miscellaneous simple permit application. Whether a same-size garage door replacement needs one isn't spelled out, so ask your installer or contact Development Services. New opener wiring is electrical work for a Texas-licensed electrician.
Can I request quotes from Van Alstyne or rural areas near Anna?
Yes. Requests from around Anna, including nearby Van Alstyne and unincorporated Collin County, are welcome. Fewer companies may reply for addresses farther north, so include your ZIP code and ask each company whether a trip fee applies.
