Ironically, a terrible storm gave birth to this town with the happy name. Before the Civil War, there were four settlements here: Long Creek, Tripp, Hatterville and New Hope. Of these, New Hope was the more prosperous. It had many shops, a fair called Gala Days and a newspaper, The New Hope News. It was neighboring Mesquite's biggest rival.

This all ended in 1921 when a storm blew the town away! The glory days were over. In 1953, these four settlements decided to merge and held a naming contest at a local school. Sunnyvale was born. Today, vestiges of Sunnyvale's patchwork history still remain like the old New Hope School or the Tripp First Baptist Church, as well as many historic houses. History is alive in Sunnyvale.

Situated 15 miles east of downtown Dallas, Sunnyvale is an easy commute down Highway 80. All the amenities of city life are easily accessed, yet all the comforts of relaxed living are just a stroll away. For water enthusiasts, there's Lake Ray Hubbard offering 27,400 acres of water recreation. For nature lovers, Sunnyvale offers rolling pasture and sweeping meadows.

As of the 2000 census, just under 2,700 citizens called Sunnyvale home. Children attend school through the Sunnyvale Independent School District for grades Kindergarten through 8th. High school students attend school in the Mesquite Independent School District.
