Living in North Dallas

A family enjoying their May Homes home in North Dallas.

December 23, 2025

Whether you’ve lived in the area for years, are looking to return after some time away or are moving here for the first time, there’s so much to love about living in Dallas. But for the most premium Dallas experience, May Homes suggests focusing your home search on the North Dallas neighborhood. 

North Dallas generally includes areas of the city north of the busting downtown area. Residents here truly get the best of both worlds, with easy access to the most desirable parts of downtown Dallas with a slower pace of life, newer and larger homes, and its own amenities and attractions.

Stellar opportunities for work and school   

Dallas and its surrounding suburbs offer one of the best job markets in the country, ideal for working professionals and their families. North Dallas residents are able to enjoy the proximity to dozens of major employers across a variety of industries throughout the greater Dallas-Fort Worth area. To make this even more lucrative, the average commute time for workers who live in this area is 23 minutes—a drive many locals would be envious of.  

School-aged residents of North Dallas have the opportunity to attend some of the best public schools in the state. Whether you find a home in the Dallas Independent School District or a neighboring district, you can rest assured that your child will receive a quality education to set them up for success in life. Additionally, numerous colleges and universities are in the area for those wishing to continue their education close to home. 

Family-friendly entertainment options  

Aside from places to work and learn, the area of North Dallas is full of entertainment options for the whole family. Love to shop? Check out the various retail shopping centers, including NorthPark Mall and Galleria Dallas—two upscale enclosed malls. Those who want to be immersed in culture and the arts will appreciate the various museums, theaters and galleries in the area. Outdoor enthusiasts are also in luck, with award-winning golf courses, well-maintained walking and biking trails and the green space surrounding White Rock Lake. 

Cuisine connoisseurs will be thrilled to eat and drink their way through North Dallas, with both chain and locally owned restaurants featuring just about any food you could be looking for. Whether you’re in the mood for Texas barbecue and beer or upscale Italian and wine selection, you’re sure to find your new favorite restaurant in North Dallas.
