Smaller established southwest Amarillo neighborhood
Estacado, developed in the 1970s, is an older southwest Amarillo neighborhood known for larger property lots. While maybe not as a popular as it early days, this primarily residential community's location between Coulter and Bell streets puts residents in the heart of the city's retail corridor. Estacado is part of the A-rated Canyon Independent School District and has easy access to Interstate 27 and Texas State Loop 335. “It’s not as sought after as some of the communities just to the north and west of it,” says Debbie Dodson, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker First Equity, who has sold homes in the neighborhood. “It still has beautiful streets and is known for its big yards.”
Estacado is an established neighborhood of Amarillo with attractive homes and great schools.
Stylish brick ranches grace the Estacado neighborhood.

Brick ranch and bungalows on roomy lots
Like most city neighborhoods, Estacado’s streets are hidden off main thoroughfares. The wide roads are connected with sidewalks that make it easy for residents to get around on foot. Brick Craftsman bungalows and a few ranch styles with larger lots fill the neighborhood streets. The ranch homes have front and back yards and driveways that lead to two-car garages. Along Hurst Avenue and Oakcrest Lane are also townhouse communities for those looking for maintenance-free living. Prices range from around $195,000 to $300,000 for a townhouse, while single family homes range from $250,000 to $400,000. The market moves faster here than the national average, with listings moving in 24 days compared to the national average of 44 days.
Modernized ranch homes with creative landscaping can be found in the neighborhood.
Estacado homes typically feature mature trees and attractive landscaping.

Zoned for the A-rated Canyon ISD
Estacado is one of the northernmost neighborhoods in the Canyon Independent School District, which rates as an A on Niche. Arden Road Elementary School is for kindergarten through fourth grade, and Greenways Intermediate School teaches fifth and sixth grade before heading to West Plains Junior High School. All three schools get an A from Niche. West Plains High School is the newest in the district, opened in 2022-23 and scores a B.

John Stiff Memorial Park is less than 3 miles away
Estacado is one of the few Amarillo neighborhoods without a park, but it is near multiple green spaces. Locals can walk less than a mile south to access Arden Road School Park or the same distance north to Windsor School Park. Both open fields are attached to local elementary schools and offer a playground and field space for baseball and soccer.
Three miles away, John Stiff Memorial Park is one of the region's largest is jam-packed with amenities. Residents can use the walking and biking trails that surround McDonald Lake and the green space has a community pool and a large skate park. It is home to the Amarillo National Tennis Center, which has indoor and outdoor courts available for rent, while the city’s parks and recreation department runs lessons and camps there.

Sandwiched between the retail strips on Coulter and Bell streets
Being between Coulter and Bell streets provides plenty of options for places to shop or grab a meal. The Walmart Neighborhood Market on Arden Road is right on the neighborhood's outskirts and provides an easy place for grocery shopping. An Amarillo staple for nearly 50 years, Pete’s Greenhouse is a gift shop and nursery that also holds gardening workshops. “People love going to get their plants from Pete’s Greenhouse and even come from out of town and around the region to shop there,” Dodson says. Southwest Amarillo has national brands and chain restaurants from Lowe’s and Taco Villa. Other local favorites include 575 Pizzeria, which heats all its pies to 575 degrees and has craft beer and wines. Across the street, Sa-vor is known for its Tapas plates and outdoor patio.
Estacado residents enjoy great schools and spacious lots.

Informal events in Estacado or community gatherings downtown
Estacado has no formal HOA, but the neighborhood occasionally has garage sales and informal block parties. The neighboring John Stiff Memorial Park has space available for rent for private events and hosts large community events, like the Independence Day +1 Festival. Hosted on July 5, it is free to the public and includes a drone light show combined with fireworks to cap off the night. Downtown Amarillo hosts the Amarillo Market on Saturdays in the Summer on Polk Street, while sports fans head to Hodgetown to cheer on the Amarillo Sod Poodles.

Texas State Loop 335 is an alternative roadway nearby. It encircles the city and connects to I-27 and I-40. Northwest Texas Medical Center is a nearly 500-bed hospital only 5 miles away.
