Yes -- Denton County's population skews younger overall (roughly 10% age 65+, versus roughly 12% in Tarrant County), reflecting Denton's faster growth from younger families, though its absolute number of seniors is still substantial given its overall size.
What is specific to this county
Denton County sits at the northern edge of this metro's coverage area and is itself one of the fastest-growing counties in the country, driven heavily by younger family in-migration to cities like Denton, Flower Mound and Lewisville. That growth pattern means its senior population, while smaller as a share of the total, is still a meaningful and growing number in absolute terms -- and senior housing supply in parts of Denton County has had to expand quickly to keep pace. Families in the southern part of Denton County near Roanoke or Northlake sometimes find it practical to compare options in northern Tarrant County (Keller, Southlake) as well, given the short drive between them.
