Slaughter is an eclectic Texas suburb known for its schools
At first glance, Slaughter may seem like a typical Texas suburb about 35 miles north of Dallas. However, this neighborhood stands out with big-city amenities, like convenient shopping areas and a newer housing stock in the historic city of McKinney. Centered around a reputable elementary school, Slaughter has a family oriented atmosphere with green spaces and eclectic homes on the city's west side. "It has master-planned communities, and there is quite a variety of properties, from small homes to large estates," says Leigh Calvert, an area local and broker associate at Briggs Freeman Sotheby's International Realty.
Slaughter is the slightly more expensive western end of McKinney, TX.
