Dupont
Suburban Neighborhood in Chattanooga, Tennessee
Hamilton County 37343, 37415
Mid-century homes along the hills
The largest residential area lies to the north end of the neighborhood. Curving roads lead to a sprawling suburban landscape, with homes dotting the hilly terrain. Many properties have long front drives, with homes set far from the road. Many of the properties in Dupont are owner-occupied, single-family homes, built during the factory's heyday -- the 1950s to the 1970. Though some contemporary housing is peppered throughout, common architectural styles include ranch-style homes, mixed-material split-levels and the classic bungalow – a favored style for Chattanooga. Contemporary homes have characteristic twists like center A-frames and attached sunrooms. Prices range from $250,000 to $500,000.Dupont Park and riverfront views
Dupont Park has nearly 13 acres of lush greenery with four soccer fields, several picnic pavilions and walking trails under the shade of trees. "Dupont Park is the best place if you love disc golfing; it's got a really great course. If you're in Tennessee, disc golfing is a pretty big thing," says Barron. The Champions Club Tennis Complex is just west, alongside the Rivermont Park baseball fields and boat ramp. The south of Dupont borders the Tennessee River, making Tennessee Riverpark a quick trip across the C.B. Robinson Bridge. This park offers a ton of open green space for picnicking and stunning river views. For jogging and biking, the Riverpark has a long, diverse paved greenway system that winds through the trees and past the water.Hamilton County School District
"The greater area of Hixson has one of the better school systems in Chattanooga— there's over 26 schools around the neighborhood, so there's plenty of options," Barron says. Students in Dupont fall within the Hamilton County School District. They can attend Dupont Elementary, Hixson Middle School and Hixson High School, all of which scored B's on Niche. Hixson High has several hands-on Future Ready Institutes in subjects such as healthcare, agriculture and business to prepare students for life post-graduation. Chattanooga State Community College is 3 miles away, just across the Tennessee River, and the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga is about 7 miles south.Flood risk
