Welcome to Dallas, Texas, where Natalie has lived and worked for the last 20 years. Dallas is the ninth-largest city in the United States and is located in the country’s fourth-largest metropolitan area. 

Prominent sectors of Dallas’ diverse economy include defense, financial services, information technology, telecommunications, and transportation. Dallas is home to nine Fortune 500 companies within the city limits while the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex hosts twenty-two Fortune 500 companies, the second-most in Texas and fourth-most in the United States. Over 41 colleges and universities are located within its metropolitan area, which is the most of any metropolitan area in Texas. 

Don’t let our archetypal imagery mislead you into picturing Dallas as a vast patchwork of concrete and steel affixed atop the edge of the southern plains. Each of the city’s neighborhoods are composed of unique architecture, lifestyles, and opportunities.

Lakewood

Lakewood

Lakewood is a neighborhood in East Dallas, Texas. It is adjacent to White Rock Lake and Northeast of Downtown Dallas.

Running along the west side of White Rock Lake, Lakewood is home to both impressive estates and charming cottages. What binds the neighborhood together is a love for the community’s combination of natural beauty, easy access to the amenities of the city center, and a fierce commitment to supporting the local elementary school, which is among the best in Dallas.

Preston Hollow

Preston Hollow

Preston Hollow is a neighborhood in north Dallas, Texas, USA. It is bordered on the south by the city of University Park, Texas.

Preston Hollow is home to many of the richest people in Dallas — and a certain former president of the United States — but the majority of its streets are lined with modest ranch-style homes. Many residents take advantage of the neighborhood’s close proximity to the top private schools in the city, as well as the plethora of shops found at nearby Preston-Royal, Preston Center, and NorthPark Center.

Midway Hollow

Midway Hollow

Sitting just north of Love Field, Midway Hollow is the more affordable alternative to the grander lifestyles found just to the east in Preston Hollow. No longer quite the secret it once was, new investment over the last decade has been transforming the face of the neighborhood that’s increasingly popular thanks to its location so near to the heart of the city.

Bluffview

Bluffview

Bluffview is an upscale neighborhood in North Dallas, Texas. It is bounded by Northwest Highway (Loop 12) and the Preston Hollow neighborhood on the north, Inwood Road and the Devonshire neighborhood on the east, Lovers Lane and the Elm Thicket/North Park neighborhood on the south, and Midway Road, Bluebonnet Road, Bluff View Blvd., and the Shorecrest and Cochran's Chapel neighborhoods on the west.

What was once a dairy farm pasture is home to some of Dallas’ most desirable properties. The shaded, winding streets do, in fact, sit on a bluff. Home to famous names like musician Don Henley and former U.S. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, residents are drawn to the natural beauty of a community surprisingly close to a busy airport like Love Field.

Vickery Place

Vickery Place

Vickery Place is a historic neighborhood in East Dallas, Texas, bounded on the north by Goodwin Avenue, on the west by North Central Expressway (US 75), and Henderson, on the south by Belmont, and on the east by Greenville Avenue.

In recent years, this neighborhood has gained popularity among young families who don’t want to sacrifice the amenities of big-city living just because children have entered their lives. The restrictions of the Greenland Hills and Vickery Place conservation districts ensure that the charming character of their streets isn’t destroyed by new construction out of sync with the existing rows of Tudor cottages.

"M" Streets

"M" Streets

The "M" Streets or more properly, Greenland Hills is a neighborhood in east Dallas, Texas. It is bounded on the west by North Central Expressway (US 75), on the south by Vanderbilt Avenue, on the east by Greenville Avenue, and on the north by McCommas Boulevard.

WELCOME TO THE M STREETS

Lake Highlands

Lake Highlands

Lake Highlands is a neighborhood constituting most of Northeast Dallas. The neighborhood is a collection of dozens of subdivisions served by Richardson ISD and Dallas ISD public schools, as well as an array of private schools.

Along the northeast side of White Rock Lake, the residents of this neighborhood are proud of its 70-plus year history and its unique position (elevation-wise) within the city, boasting a gorgeous view of the downtown skyline. One of Dallas ISD’s best-performing elementary schools, Hexter, also serves as a rallying point for residents.

Downtown

Downtown

Downtown Dallas is the central business district (CBD) of Dallas, Texas located in the geographic center of the city. It is the second-largest business district in the state of Texas. The area termed "Downtown" has traditionally been defined as bounded by the downtown freeway loop, bounded on the east by I-345 (although known and signed as the northern terminus of I-45 and the southern terminus of US 75 (Central Expressway), on the west by I-35E, on the south by I-30, and on the north by Spur 366 (Woodall Rodgers Freeway).

A flood of investment is transforming old buildings into shiny mixed-use developments and drawing new shops, restaurants, and bars to the city center. Once a ghost town after 5 p.m. on weekdays — when thousands of office workers troop out of the neighborhood’s skyscrapers — downtown Dallas is becoming a live-work-play community all its own.

Uptown

Uptown

Uptown is a an upscale neighborhood in Dallas, Texas. Uptown is north of and adjacent to downtown Dallas, and is bordered by US 75 (Central Expressway) on the east, N Haskell Avenue on the northeast, the Katy Trail on the northwest, Bookhout Street and Cedar Springs Road on the west, N Akard Street on the southwest and Spur 366 (Woodall Rodgers Freeway) on the south.

Dallas’ most walkable live-work-play community boasts a host of new apartments, trendy bars, hot restaurants, and much of the best shopping in town. Singles in their 20s often dominate the social scene along McKinney Avenue, but it’s mostly professionals on the other side of age 30 who have settled into the townhomes along the tree-lined roads farther north, closer to Knox Street.

Deep Ellum

Deep Ellum

Deep Ellum is a neighborhood composed largely of arts and entertainment venues near downtown in East Dallas, Texas. The name is based on a corruption of the area's principal thoroughfare, Elm Street. Older alternative uses include Deep Elm and Deep Elem.

The neighborhood lies directly east of the elevated I-45/US 75 (unsigned I-345) freeway and extends to Exposition Avenue, connected to downtown by, from north to south, Pacific, Elm, Main, Commerce, and Canton streets. The neighborhood is north of Exposition Park and south of Bryan Place.

Long the heart of the Dallas music scene, Deep Ellum is still better known for its nightlife than as a place to call home. After plenty of ups and downs during the past few decades, the neighborhood is in the midst of another renaissance. To its east, towards Fair Park along Exposition Avenue, Expo Park has only recently begun to develop its own identity.
