N.L. 'Moe' Craddock, a Dallas firefighter, opened a {{convert|30|acre|m2|adj=on}} mobile home park in the area. He helped push for the incorporation of Glenn Heights to prevent his business from being annexed by the city of DeSoto.[6] The town was officially incorporated on September 16, 1969.[7] Mr. Craddock remained active in Glenn Heights politics, serving on the city council during the 1970s and 1980s. He was appointed mayor in 1985 and was elected to that office in 1988, 1990, and 1992.[6] There were 257 residents living in Glenn Heights at the 1970 census.

Despite its rapid rate of growth, more than 50 percent of city land remains undeveloped.[9] Demographics{{US Census population|1970= 257 |1980= 1033 |1990= 4564 |2000= 7224 |2010= 11278 |estyear=2016 |estimate=12336 |estref=[10] |footnote=U.S. Decennial Census[11] }} As of 2010 Glenn Heights had a population of 11,278.
