"Kiestwood - right in the middle of everything good in the Metroplex"

Located just north of the Dallas Executive Airport, Kiestwood is a West Dallas neighborhood of roomy single family homes with spacious yards that are for the most part well cared for. However, the area around this neighborhood has in many ways been deteriorating for a few years now. This part of Dallas is unique in that any direction you go, there are superb entertainment options available.

The area is served by the Dallas Independent School District and there are a few private schools in the area for families with children. You can also use Dallas Rapid Area Transit if you work in the city, making your commute quick, easy, and inexpensive. A trip west on Interstate 20 will bring you to Arlington, which is home to the Dallas Cowboys of the NFL and Major League Baseball's Texas Rangers. It's also home to Six Flags Over Texas, one of the best theme parks in the state. Going east will bring you to Downtown Dallas in a matter of minutes as this neighborhood is close to just about everything in the Dallas Ft. Worth Metroplex.

Kiestwood is a good choice for affordable and roomy family homes in a central location in the DFW Metro area.
Pros
  • close to Downtown Dallas
Cons
  • heavy traffic on adjacent roads during rush hour
  • rising crime rates in the surrounding area
