"An affordable neighborhood close to the heart of the city"

The L.O. Daniel neighborhood is located in the Oak Cliff section of Dallas and is mainly comprised of modest family homes and is considered a working class neighborhood. If you want a home or a rental at an affordable price, it is an option you may consider. The make-up of the neighborhood is mainly Hispanic, with a small percentage of white, blacks, and other ethnic groups. The medium home price in this area is around $150,000.

The area is served by the Dallas Independent School District which has some of the best magnet schools of any district in the nation. It's easy to commute to any part of the city with Dallas Area Rapid Transit either by bus or by rail. There are several excellent options if you want to eat out in the area with the Metro Diner on West Davis Street and Polio Salsa on the western edge of the neighborhood has some great authentic Mexican food. On the downside, this neighborhood has a higher crime rate than Dallas as a whole.

If you want affordable housing near Downtown Dallas with public transportation as an option, the L.O. Daniel neighborhood may just be the right choice for you.
Pros
  • close to Downtown Dallas
  • affordable housing
Cons
  • heavy traffic on adjacent roads during rush hour
  • rising crime rates over the past two decades
  • some smog and air quality problems during the summer months
