Dukedale-Vanceville
Range of sizes, new Duckwater Landing
The area contains multiple gated communities, from active adult to master-planned single-family. Subdivisions include the brand-new Duckwater Landing, featuring farmhouse styles and contemporary painted brick beauties for around $400,000. Stapf-Tolisano adds, “The Legacy master-planned development has soccer fields, baseball diamonds, pools and an HOA that keeps the neighborhood beautifully maintained. Homes can range in size from 1,100 to 3,500 square feet, depending on which of the three Legacy communities you choose. And Willow Lake is a great choice if you’re seeking a 55-and-over neighborhood where you can slow down your pace.” You can also find brick homes built in 2003 for $255,000 or 1980s ranch styles for under $200,000. Residents often stroll pathways through neighborhoods, bike to shopping centers, or trade books at the Little Free Library.

Brownlee Park, Cypress Reservoir and Zoo
North Bossier Park spans more than 53 acres of walkable green space. Stapf-Tolisano says, “Locals call it Brownlee Park, and it’s popular with all surrounding communities because it has soccer fields, tennis courts and a playground area. You’ll always see families having birthday parties at the pavilion.” Residents can also head northeast to boat or fish on Cypress Black Bayou Reservoir or visit many native animal species at the Cypress Zoo, on a 7-acre parkland brimming with pine, oak and sweet gum trees. For some nautical fun, the Shreveport Aquarium is about 7 miles away, and from the Duckwater Landing subdivision, it’s only an 8-mile drive to the Louisiana Downs race track and casino.

A-grade schools, updated Benton High
Public schools are within the Bossier Parish Public Schools District, which Niche gives an A-minus grade. Kids may start at Legacy Elementary, which earns a Niche A grade, and move on to Benton Middle and Benton High, which both earn a Niche A-minus. Benton High School recently enjoyed a major renovation that added 70 classrooms, two gymnasiums and two chemistry labs.

SporTran stops nearby
Most residents drive to work; however, SporTran bus stops along Airline Drive offer transit to downtown Shreveport.Johnny's, Brookshire's, Boardwalk Outlets
Within the neighborhood, homes are close to a shopping plaza or two. Residents dine on pizza and pasta at Johnny’s, or dig into burgers, po-boys and oysters at Papa and Company. There’s also a new Brookshire’s grocery store nestled in a shopping plaza next to a CVS. In the adjacent community, Stirling Bossier Shopping Center includes famous chain eateries such as Another Broken Egg Café and Chicken Salad Chick, serving up fresh sandwiches and salads either indoors or outdoors under bright green umbrellas. “For date nights or outings with friends,” adds Stapf-Tolisano, “you’ll probably head into historic East Bank district in Bossier City. There’s a movie theater there, several craft breweries, and boutique shops.” More than 25 stores and 15 eateries fill the riverside Lousiana Boardwalk Outlets downtown, about 7 miles from home, where evening strolls along the boardwalk offer lovely views.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
