Quiet neighborhood in northwest Amarillo

Westcliff’s multiple price points make it accessible to most potential homebuyers, making it a sought-after community for those looking to live in the northwest suburbs of Amarillo. The neighborhood is part of the highly-rated Amarillo Independent School District. In fact, the zoned elementary and middle schools are the newest in the district. An exclusively residential neighborhood, shopping and dining are a short drive via Amarillo Boulevard. “It’s a quieter neighborhood,” says Blake Goldston, a Westcliff resident and area director for BeLocal Amarillo, a local magazine. “It’s a very pedestrian community, and you see people walking around or driving their golf carts. Neighbors visit with each other regularly, but we don’t have any official events.”

Diverse home selection in Westcliff

Ranch-style houses and Craftsman-style bungalows are perched on compact lots with fenced-in backyards and attached garages. These homes range in price from $280,000 to $425,000. However, some sections on the eastern part of the neighborhood feature sprawling modern homes with touches of Spanish and Tudor architecture.

Westcliff’s CAP Index Crime Score is a 3 out of 10, lower than the national average of 4.
