Bookkeeping in the Cement Capital of Texas
Midlothian sits in Ellis County at the junction of U.S. Highway 67 and U.S. Highway 287, about 25 miles southwest of Dallas. Its title as the Cement Capital of Texas traces to the plant Texas Industries began building in 1959, which expanded to help supply construction of DFW Airport. The Gerdau steel mill arrived in the 1970s and employs over 1,000 people.
