An established suburb in East Dallas
While its name implies the opposite, Urbandale offers comfortable suburban living among pocket parks, sidewalk-lined streets and locally owned restaurants, all just 8 miles east of Downtown Dallas. “Urbandale offers flexibility where you’re close to downtown, but far enough away to get out of the city a bit and have that true, suburban feel,” says Jody Hawkins, a Realtor with Local Realty Agency who has been selling homes in the area for over four years. “This area is also a bit more established.” The East Dallas neighborhood is about 2 miles south of Interstate 30, which provides easy access to the city center and beyond.
