North Ridge Estates No. 2
Surrounded by nature
Median $348K·Walkability 3.4/10·Schools 6.5/10
What surprises people about this stretch is how close everything lands without feeling cramped. You've got four parks within a mile, including Bob King Park a quick seven-minute walk away, and Twin Lakes just over a mile out for whenever the water calls. Grocery stores dot the landscape—four within two miles, the nearest less than a mile down the road—and restaurants are about a twelve-minute walk if you're ready to leave the house. The coffee shop runs a bit farther at one point one miles, but that's the trade for having sidewalks, cul-de-sacs, and actual breathing room between homes.
