I like how close I am to the freeway and restaurants. The area itself is quiet and affordable in my opinion. They recently started construction on some of the roads in the neighborhood which is a change for the better because there’s lots of bumps. I do wish they would remodel a few apartments nearby just to make the area look a little nicer and build a shelter for the homeless. Due to it being by a major intersection and freeway a lot of homeless people linger nearby. I do feel safe and there’s a Target, HEB and Walmart all within a 5 mile radius. Not to mention a few banking options. I’ve always lived close to this area, even during the tropical storm last year my apartment did not experience any flooding or the road leaving the entrance to my complex. Overall it’s a good area if you like bars, restaurants, gyms, etc.
Westchase is a very convenient area to live in. There are copious amounts of stores and businesses with such close access. There are also many freeways within reach. I rate it 3 stars because it is not the safest area, especially over the last three years.
I'm new to this area, but I love it. There's restaurants, gas stations, and grocery stores all right by me without it feeling like so much is going on.
