Built around the water, Caruth Lakes has a small-town feel
A few blocks north of downtown Rockwall, Texas, lies Caruth Lake, a highly desirable neighborhood with well-kept 21st-century homes and enviable amenities, including its 62-acre namesake lake at the center of it all. "A unique thing about Caruth Lakes is that it has more amenities than any of the other neighboring communities," says Amy Gimmer, a local Rockwall Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty. "It has lakes stocked with fish, lake trails, playgrounds, pools and great schools. As cliché as it sounds, Caruth Lake is a great place to raise a family. It has everything for every stage of life." Gimmer also notes the strong sense of community in Caruth Lake and Rockwall as a whole. "It has a small-town charm where everybody kind of knows everybody."

Highly-rated schools with competitive athletic programs
Area youngsters attend schools in the highly-rated and sought-after Rockwall Independent School District, including Hays Elementary for pre-kindergarten through sixth grades and Utley Middle for grades seven and eight. Teenagers spend ninth through 12th grades at Rockwall-Heath High School, rated an A by Niche. "Academically and athletically, Rockwell ISD schools stand above the rest," Gimmer says. "And the community is very involved in the athletics. The two rival high schools share a football stadium, and the whole town comes out when they play each other. Homecoming will be a big deal around here this fall."
