Canyon Creek South

• Neighborhood in Richardson, TX
• Rating 4 out of 5  5 reviews

Niche User: The general atmosphere of this area is friendly, safe, and busy. The community is close, the policemen and firemen are always available and easily accessible, there tons of small businesses coming and going. If I could choose to live here again I would. However, my only complaint is that the area's ethnic and political diversity is very small. A good portion of the are is white and conservative. I believe that an are should consist of an equal mix of conservatives and liberals. With the area being in Texas, the area's current ethnic and political statistics are not of any surprise. With that said, compared to everywhere else in the country, I personally feel that this area is definitely one of the best places for people who want to be involved in a tight knit community and want to live in a small town with a touch of the big city.

Canyon Creek North

• Neighborhood in Richardson, TX
• Rating 4 out of 5  15 reviews

Current Resident: I love the creeks and parks that are around. We always have a good neighborhood watch group. Even though the creek is a very popular place to take pictures, not only in Richardson but cities around. It really needs some extra cleaning with the trash and moving sticks that stop up the waterfall.

Arapaho

• Neighborhood in Richardson, TX
• Rating 3.75 out of 5  4 reviews

Current Resident: Richardson is a great place to live, and Arapaho exemplifies that wonderfully. There are many great local restaurants, coffee shops, and other businesses. The parks are nice for playing with children, walking dogs, having a picnic, or just relaxing. Arapaho has many families, but also people older and younger. It is a nice place to walk around, and the neighborhood schools are nice. The proximity to the city is great!

Northrich

• Neighborhood in Richardson, TX
• Rating 4.33 out of 5  3 reviews

Current Resident: I live near Campbell with easy access to I-75 which provides easy transit to the rest of DFW. No HOA fees! Northrich is the best valued neighborhood in Richardson. So many great fast casual restaurants nearby. So many great places to walk nearby. As Dallas trends northward, Richardson is in the middle of all the action with easy access to Dallas, Plano, Addison, and Frisco, while Richardson remains much quieter itself.

Town North Park

• Neighborhood in Richardson, TX
• Rating 4 out of 5  1 review

Current Resident: I moved here from a very interactive Richardson neighborhood. That is not true here. People tend to keep to themselves, no sense of "neighborhood" at all. The exception being kids, who will find each other wherever they are. For single adults, while I feel very safe here, it's a solitary life.

Mark Twain

• Neighborhood in Richardson, TX
• Rating 3.5 out of 5  6 reviews

Niche User: This metroplex has many great cultures amoung the most integrated roots, with a moderate climate for a cool blooded nature. Aside from being a growing city, downtown needs many improvements, yet grows with sky highs. The suburbs are a great place to live among other booming county's. Here lays much history and patriotism across the routes of the original state of Texas. Personally, I do feel if I did have the opportunity to choose where my ancestors resided for the traditions over the generations, I would probably choose just slightly north or north west. Amarillo in the panhandle I think will be a wide metroplex connecting you to the west and east corners of the continent with ease and warmer tempature in years to come. In conclusion, a rocky, seasonally adjusted temperament is where I believe I belong. Through route 66, there only lay plains across this big, but wonderful state.
