Residential neighborhood less than a mile from Temple's historic district
Brimming with midcentury homes, the Jackson Park District is a primarily residential neighborhood built around an active community park.

Schools are nearby, as are other popular parks, and the neighborhood is home to Temple landmarks like the Seven Star and Hillcrest cemeteries. The Historic District of downtown Temple and all its dining and shopping is less than a mile away.
