If you would have asked me 5 years ago, I would have said that Kennedale was a fantastic place to live. Today my answer is completely different. Kennedale is a decent place to live if you don’t mind people walking around in your yard taking pictures of your yard stuff late at night. I live on a fairly quiet street but every once in awhile cops showing up to deescalate strange situations. If that isn’t a problem then the snobs that also live here will go to great lengths to ruin your child’s school reputation and get your kid so angry they start acting out because of the terrible kid’s bullying your child and the parents are too blind to see that they are the root cause of their child’s bullying problems watching their parents act the same way. My child refuses to go back to the 1 high school we have in Kennedale due to the horrible kids at that school. Truly breaks my heart!
Since I've moved to Kennedale 3 years ago the homeless issue at the corner of Mansfield Hwy and IH 20 has progressively worsened to the point that there is constant trash all over. At any given time of the day you find 2 to 4 people begging for money, sleeping under the bridge, etc. The homeless community just down the road living under the creek overpass has the fire department put out fires on multiple ocassions.
There is a large trailer park that is the drug distribution capital of this little town (or at least that's what one campaigning politician told me. If you know this...do something about it for heavens sake!)
We pay the 2nd highest taxes in Tarrant county to live like this!! It's no wonder our property values are lower than the national average.
Our streets are literally crumbling from erosion due to the cities poor maintenance. We have no sidewalks.
Clean up the town politicians and stop using our taxpayer dollars for your own purposes!!!!

Growing up in Kennedale Texas with my little sister was fun and filled with lots of excitement! My sister and I are 18 months apart, but we act as if we're best friends. We both played basketball throughout our school years and traveled often once we hit high school. With majority of the funds and tax paying dollars going towards the football team, it made it hard to make sure we as the girls basketball team had transportation and supplies for road trips. I would love for Kennedale to use the funds wisely and divide them up amongst the different sports and or even the other electives so all groups are supported and equipped.
