Convenience and culture in Heronville

Less than 4 miles south of Oklahoma City, the small suburb of Heronville provides convenient access to the buzz of city life. The neighborhood is a halfway point between Interstates 44 and 35, making it easy for residents to explore the surrounding area and reach amenities like parks, major hospitals and the city’s airport. Newcomers are also drawn to Heronville’s social and cultural characteristics. “There are a lot of Latino-owned businesses and restaurants that people love and visit daily,” says Eric Avalos, Realtor with Metro First Realty of Edmond, who has 4 years of experience in the area.

Small homes at accessible price points

The homes sitting along the streets of Heronville are tightly packed, many sitting within mere feet of each other. Because the front yards are relatively flat and small, trees are few and far between. Any wooded areas will be found on the back end of bungalows and ranch houses. “Most of the homes there are going to be built in the 1940s,” Avalos says. “Oklahoma City was built radially. So, downtown started being built in the 1910s and ‘20s, and from there, all the other neighborhoods were built around the perimeter.” Prices can dip below $100,000 for petite properties spanning about 800 square feet, while a 1,400 square foot home with a one-car attached garage, fresh coat of paint and new appliances can sell for $145,000. Because the community is car-dependent, homes that do not have a garage typically feature a carport or small paved driveway to provide off-street parking.

Authentic Mexican cuisine and market within walking distance

El Primo Loco has a few locations scattered across OKC, and one sits along South Western Avenue on Heronville’s eastern end. Walk past the large ceramic chicken statue outside the main entrance and head inside to order one of the chicken platters served with tortillas, beans and rice. La Michoacana Meat Market is a staple among residents for its butcher shop, produce and ingredients for authentic Mexican cuisine lining the shelves. Fresh baked goods and tamales are also made daily. Locals can find additional groceries at the Walmart less than 1.5 miles south of the neighborhood. Reaching larger retailers like Old Navy, Marshalls and Best Buy will require a nearly 4-mile drive south to Penn Park Shopping Center.

Learning in Oklahoma City Public Schools

Students living in Heronville are zoned for Oklahoma City Public Schools. They’ll attend Heronville Elementary, Roosevelt Middle and Capitol Hill High schools, each earning a C-minus from Niche. Because Heronville Elementary School sits in the neighborhood’s northern end, many students walk to and from class. Once they filter into Capitol Hill High School, students can enroll in one of the specialized academies focused on arts and engineering.

Sports complexes at nearby Woodson Park

Several pocket parks near Heronville give locals a place to get fresh air and exercise. Brock Park sits adjacent to the neighborhood’s northwestern corner. Walking paths weave around the park, split down the middle by Brock Creek. There’s also a small playground where parents can take their kids to burn off some energy for a few hours. Residents will find more to do at Woodson Park, which sits roughly 2 miles west of the neighborhood. The green space is separated into two sections by Interstate 44. On one side, locals cheer from the bleachers during youth league soccer and baseball games. On the other side of the freeway is a swimming pool, playgrounds and a basketball court.

Heronville is close to downtown and has all the small town charm.

EMBARK public transit helps commuters reach downtown OKC

Commuters working in the heart of downtown Oklahoma City or at major employers like Oklahoma Community College can catch an EMBARK bus at one of the stops running along Southwest 29th Street. Another route to the city center runs along South Western Avenue, which can connect locals to the INTEGRIS Health Southwest Medical Center, which is less than a mile away. Heronville also provides accessibility to Interstate 44, which puts amenities like Will Rogers World Airport within a 6-mile drive.
