Newer southwest Amarillo neighborhood in the heart of the city’s expansion
Hillside Terrace is a residential neighborhood between Texas State Loop 335 and South Soncy Street, a busy commercial corridor. Developed in the 2010s, the neighborhood features an elementary school with an attached park and plenty of nearby retail options like most Amarillo neighborhoods. However, its location in the southwest part of town puts it right in the heart of the city’s growth. With easy access to the Loop, residents can navigate around town and get to plenty of retail options within a 5-mile drive. “It has become a very popular neighborhood,” says Sabre Cofer, a Realtor with EXP Realty with nearly 15 years of real estate experience. “It’s a newer neighborhood, but the selling point is because people want to be zoned for the new West Plains High School.”

City Center Amarillo events downtown
Aside from the occasional garage sale, Hillside Terrace has no official neighborhood events. However, Amarillo has plenty of community activities for entertainment. City Center Amarillo, a nonprofit, hosts numerous events throughout the year, including the Amarillo Market, a farmers market, on Saturdays in the summer and the Electric Light Parade around the holidays. Sports fans can check out the Amarillo Sod Poodles, a minor league baseball team, at Hodgetown Stadium or check out an Amarillo Symphony Orchestra performance at Globe-News Center for the Performing Arts.
Potential flood risks in the neighborhood
Life in the Texas Panhandle comes with some inherent weather risks. The city experiences temperatures that soar over 100 degrees in the summer and drop below freezing in the winter. The city is susceptible to severe thunderstorms, tornadoes and flooding. Western portions of the neighborhood along Nancy Ellen Street are at an increased risk of flooding. FEMA encourages all Texas homeowners to purchase flood insurance. Some federal lenders may require it when there is an increased risk.
