Kristy's Local Tip
"Southlake commands top dollar, but you're buying into Carroll ISD - one of the best districts in Texas. If Southlake pricing is a stretch, look at Keller or parts of Grapevine-Colleyville for excellent schools at slightly lower price points. For Southlake itself, the established neighborhoods near Town Square offer mature trees and character."
