Henderson was founded in 1953 and was named after United States Senator Charles B. Henderson. It is a relatively new city compared to some other cities in the state, which have a long history dating back to the early days of the state's settlement.
Henderson was originally a master-planned community developed by the Basic Management company. It was designed to be a residential and industrial area that would be a self-contained city with its own schools, shopping centers, and recreational facilities. The city was incorporated in 1953 and has grown significantly in population and size since then. Today, Henderson is known for its many parks, bike trails, and golf courses, as well as its thriving business community.
