"The place to be for families and lovers of nightlife"

Located next door to one of the best high schools in the Dallas area, Lake Highlands Square is a small and close neighborhood with manicured lawns and roomy family homes. Lake Highlands High School, part of the Richardson Independent School District, is within walking distance and it plays host every July to the Festival of Drums and Bugles, where you can see several of the top ranked drum and bugle corps in the world.

It's also close to White Rock Lake, one of the best places in all of Dallas to get away from the rat race and fish, walk, jog, sail, or just sit and people-watch. The Dallas Arboretum is a great place to see a concert in the evenings featuring popular regional and national touring acts. There are several great places to eat close by, as Greenville Avenue is just west of the neighborhood, and it is one of the best places to find a wide variety of fine dining in the city. Greenville Avenue also has some of the very hottest nightspots in the city and there's always something to do in this part of the city.

Lake Highlands Square is a great place to raise a family and enjoy some of the best Dallas has to offer.
Pros
  • next to White Rock Lake and the Dallas Arboretum
  • friendly neighborhood
  • close to Greenville Avenue
Cons
  • heavy traffic at times on streets that border the neighborhood
