Wylie has nearly doubled in population since 2010, making it one of Collin County's fastest-expanding cities. That rapid in-migration of younger families has gradually compressed margins that once ran lopsided in countywide contests.
Across the recorded series it reached a Republican high of 52.6 points in 2004. Between 2020 and 2024 the city moved 5.7 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 17.2 points.
A population of 60,334, a 50% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $119,522 describe the city. The city's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of The Colony and McKinney.
