Wilshire is a convenient and established neighborhood

Although it’s in a desirable location, residential streets are quiet and filled with homes that have been in Midland for decades. “Most people moving to this area are looking for convenience to work or their kids' schools,” says Realtor Daina Perkins with eXp Realty, who's a Midland native.

Older homes on grassy, landscaped lots
In the arid West Texas desert, residential streets are flat, wide and walkable. Because most properties in Wilshire were built between the 1950s and ‘70s, they often have established lawns, and mature trees line the sidewalks. “It’s a great area to take a walk,” Perkins says. Small brick cottages and ranch-style homes are common, and potential homebuyers can find houses in the neighborhood for between $150,000 and $300,000, depending on the size, age and condition. Many residents in the neighborhood are renters, and apartment complexes accommodate them.
