Houses often sport large, grassy front yards and fenced-in backyards. Houses often sell between $150,000 and the mid-$300,000s, with the upper end including more recent remodels.

Highways cutting through Highland Hills
Lake Hefner Parkway and the Northwest Expressway each run through the neighborhood. While noise can be an issue for homes closer to the roadway, it makes for easy access to the highways through the Oklahoma City area. “You can hop right on and get to downtown, or Edmond if you go the other way,” Cooper says. “It’s just really easy to get around the city.” Drivers can follow the Northwest Expressway to Interstate 235 for the 8-mile journey to downtown, while Lake Hefner Parkway heads south and turns into Interstate 44 on the 11-mile drive to Will Rogers World Airport. The airport offers flights to hubs across the country such as Atlanta, Dallas/Fort Worth and Denver. For local trips, the EMBARK transportation system serves Oklahoma City with bus stops throughout the neighborhood. Just across the Expressway from the neighborhood, the INTEGRIS Health Baptist Medical Center is a major employer in the area, making for a quick commute for healthcare professionals in Highland Hills.
Outdoor recreation at nearby Lake Hefner
With multiple highways cutting through the neighborhood, Highland Hills has limited space for outdoor recreation but residents don’t have to go far. Tinsley Park is just two blocks away, with a playground, basketball court and walking path along the park’s perimeter. But the most popular spot for recreation is nearby Lake Hefner. Multiple parks line the lakeshore, with Stars and Stripes Park featuring a patriotic-themed playground, while locals can tee off at the public Lake Hefner Golf Club. Those who enjoy time on the water can boat or fish, though swimming is prohibited. “People love that area because it’s real close to Lake Hefner,” Cooper says. “There are walking and bike trails all the way around the lake, just about 10 miles of trails.”
