Odessa neighborhood near stores and schools
Harrisdale is a residential Odessa neighborhood near the city limits. “You can benefit from being close to grocery stores and the schools – you’ve got everything right there,” says Araceli Reyes, a Realtor with All City Real Estate, Ltd. Co., who grew up in the area. University Boulevard, which leads about 4 miles to the University of Texas Permian Basin’s campus, intersects with West County Road. This major thoroughfare is lined with parks, restaurants and grocery stores. It is only a 3-mile drive to Downtown Odessa, where folks can check out a book from the Ector County Library before enjoying dinner at Permian Basin Hamburger Co., a city staple.

Ranch styles under $200,000
A stroll along Harrisdale’s sidewalks takes people past grassy front lawns dotted with oaks and the occasional tall cypress tree. Driveways come with every home, most of which lead to a garage or carport. Even so, the roads are wide enough to allow street parking. The neighborhood is almost exclusively filled with ranch styles built between the 1950s and 1980s. These houses, with brick, stone or vinyl exteriors, are typically within 1,800 square feet. “They’re a little smaller but have big yards – big backyards,” Reyes says. Lot sizes average about 8,000 square feet. “Homes in that area run right below $200,000,” Reyes says. A three-to four-bedroom can range from $125,000 to $200,000.
