Quiet suburban living and a strong community in Summerfields
Summerfields is a quiet community 10 miles north of the hustle and bustle of busy downtown Fort Worth. The well-established neighborhood blends laid-back suburban life, a strong sense of community and convenience. Residents are surrounded by shopping, dining, top-ranked schools and other amenities. The neighborhood is also sandwiched between two major thoroughfares, providing access to the rest of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. “It’s a good neighborhood. It has that small-town atmosphere, and it’s very diverse, and I like that,” says Lance Griggs, president of the Summerfields Neighborhood Association and 34-year resident. “There are neighbors that are close-knit. You sit in your front yard, and you’ll have people come visit you.” Griggs, who is retired and lives in Summerfields with his wife, has been the association president since 1996. The association is the heartbeat of the neighborhood, keeping residents engaged, putting forth new initiatives and raising funds for improvement projects. “I just wanted to be involved,” says Griggs. I was raised to not really depend on the government for anything, and I wanted to be able to go to the city and have a say on what was built here. I’ve given my life to this thing, and it’s been a nice neighborhood.”

Surrounded by mom-and-pop shops
Most shopping and dining options are along North Beach Street and Western Center Boulevard. “There’s a lot of mom-and-pop restaurants, cafes and little breakfast places less than a half mile from the neighborhood,” Griggs says. “We like to support the local people as much as we can.” Tacusa Tacos-N-Pupusas is a local favorite for tamales, barbacoa tacos and other Salvadoran and Mexican specialties. Woolley’s Frozen Custard is a counter-service old-school ice cream joint serving soft serve, malt milkshakes and sundaes. The Fossil Creek Plaza, which is anchored by Albertsons, has Starbucks, Family Dollar, Walgreens and one of Griggs’ favorite restaurants. “Los Molcajetes is one of the best Mexican restaurants around; it’s renowned all over Fort Worth,” he says. The eatery is known for its fajitas, giant salt-rimmed margaritas and live mariachi music. Indian Kitchen is also located here, known for its South Asian dishes and all-you-can-eat lunch buffet. Breakfast Club 51 is the go-to weekend spot for brunch dishes like chicken and waffles, breakfast sandwiches and crepes. Alliance Town Center is the closest mall, 4 miles north, with department stores, boutiques, national restaurant chains and a movie theater.

Ramblers and bungalows under $450,000
Summerfields is filled with a variety of subdivisions, styles and builders. The tree-lined community offers ranch-style homes with midcentury modern touches, bungalows and traditional two-story brick houses. “We were the first neighborhood built here, and now it’s built up over a 15-year period,” says Griggs. “It’s at about 6,500 houses now.” Many homes were built in the 1980s or '90s, and prices generally range from the low $200,000s to the low $400,000s. “We have some of the most affordable houses in the area,” Griggs says. “They’re a little older, but for the most part, they’re well-kept.” Most properties have fenced-in backyards, spacious paved driveways and either rear garage parking or front-facing multi-car garages. Many homes also have pools and large outdoor entertaining spaces. All residents are within walking distance of several parks.

Parks, trails and other recreation scattered throughout Summerfields
Spacious parks, trails and pocket green spaces are scattered throughout the neighborhood. The 27-acre Summerbrook Park has a playground, ballfields, picnic shelters and trails. Silver Sage and Summerfields parks feature soccer and baseball fields, a basketball court and shaded picnic areas. “Silver Sage is on the eastern side, Summerbrook is to the north, and Summerfields is in the southern part,” Griggs says. “A lot of people live around that immediate area and walk to it. You’ll see dads and sons pitching baseballs.” Arcadia Trail Park is the standout green space of the area, running through the neighborhood’s southern corner and stretching almost 200 acres across multiple communities. The linear park offers tennis, basketball and pickleball courts, two soccer fields, a disc golf course and hiking and biking paths. The Golf Club at Fossil Creek is less than 2 miles away and provides an 18-hole course, a driving range, a practice facility and two on-site restaurants. The club is open to the public but also has memberships and hosts tournaments.

A spirited neighborhood association striving to better the community
Established in 1994, the Summerfields Neighborhood Association keeps residents engaged. The group also raises funds for community projects, initiatives and charitable causes. “We had a newsletter that ran from 1995 to about 2008 with advertising from contributing businesses and averaged about $1,500 to $2,000, and we’d pour it back into the parks, security lights, covered pavilions and sidewalk repair,” Griggs says. “We were the driving force behind getting the Summerglen Library here, which was built in 2000.” The group has provided scholarships of up to $4,500 annually to Fossil Ridge High School students. “We’re focusing on students who were volunteering in their community and trying to foster that volunteer spirit,” he says. Their income currently comes from membership dues. Griggs and several other board members also partner with city council members to ensure the community isn’t overdeveloped and no housing is impacted by future projects. “We’re still working on a lot of zoning issues,” Griggs says. “There was a lot of multi-family housing that was being built, and we’re working with our city councilman to ensure it didn’t encroach too far from property boundaries. We didn’t want wall-to-wall apartments.” And at almost 82 years old, Griggs is out with his wife regularly as part of the volunteer Citizens on Patrol Program. This initiative collaborates with the Fort Worth Police Department to ensure areas are safe. “We go all over depending on where the need is,” he says. “My wife and I go out at about 1 a.m. six to seven nights a week.”
Pride for the USA is seen all throughout the Summerfields neighborhood.
