"Affordable East Dallas living close to Greenville Avenue"

The High Oaks Addition of East Dallas features affordable single family homes in the neighborhood of $150,000. It's close to everything in Dallas that's fun and it's only minutes from here to Downtown Dallas It's next to Harry Moss Park, a great place for a family picnic or letting the kids enjoy the playground equipment, and it also helps to serve as a buffer from the noise of the city.

This area is served by the Dallas Independent School District which is home to some of the nation's best magnet schools. For adults, the Greenville Avenue entertainment district is just one street to the west, and here you can experience some of the best dining and the hottest nightspots in all of Dallas. To the east is White Rock Lake, where you can spend the day fishing, sailing, jogging, or biking. Dallas Area Rapid Transit makes commuting to almost any part of the city fast and easy, making this a great location for a professional looking for an affordable place to live close to work.

The High Oaks Addition does have a few drawbacks though. Cheap apartments close to the area have contributed to a higher crime rate in this part of Dallas for several years now.
Pros
  • close to Downtown Dallas
  • close to fine dining and shopping
Cons
  • heavy traffic on adjacent roads during rush hour
  • rising crime rates over the past two decades
