The old flour milling and cotton town has become a popular destination, adding about 40,000 or so to its population in recent years, the Fort Worth (Texas) Star-Telegram reported Thursday.

City spokeswoman Belinda Willis said Clarkson, 23, changed her driver's license and voter registration to a Mansfield address last summer.
