Here in one of Dallas’ most walkable communities, residents enjoy live music, dine al fresco and take free public transit to nearby entertainment destinations. With its 200-plus restaurants and over 160 shops, this neighborhood just north of downtown Dallas stays vibrant all year long. “In addition to its residential appeal, Uptown is a thriving business district with numerous corporate offices, startups and coworking spaces,” says Johnny Mowad, a Realtor with Ebby Halliday Realtors and a Texas native. “I have always seen this as an area that caters to the young professionals,” says Linda Lunn, Dallas-based Global Real Estate Advisor at Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty with over seven years in the business. Those who choose Uptown are at the nexus of a flourishing live-work-play community.

McKinney Avenue and West Village: luxury shopping and dining destinations
The M-line trolley offers free rides up and down McKinney Avenue, the main artery of Uptown. At more than 100 years old, North America's oldest trolley car, fondly known as Rosie, dutifully takes commuters past many of the area’s most popular cafes, restaurants and trendy bars. Some of these eateries, like Fearing’s at The Ritz-Carlton, are helmed by celebrity chefs. The Rustic, an American restaurant, features live music played all week by locally and nationally recognized artists. And there’s no need to leave pets at home during a night on the town, thanks to MUTTS Canine Cantina, a dog-friendly bar and restaurant with two leash-free dog parks.
When it comes to shopping, locals can peruse the Uptown Farmers' Market at West Village or head 2 miles south to the Dallas Farmers’ Market downtown. West Village, the area’s premier shopping district, includes unique boutiques such as Forth & Nomad and retailers like Sephora. When it’s time to restock on groceries, Whole Foods and Walmart Neighborhood Market are within walking distance of offices and homes.
West Village shops are located along the streets of Uptown Dallas.

Upscale condos with Dallas skyline views
“Primarily, the neighborhood is condos, townhomes and apartments which cater to a Gen X and Gen Y crowd,” says Lunn. The market also includes open-concept lofts and the occasional split-level or cottage. Some homes have street parking and some are near construction; all residents are connected via shaded sidewalks. High-rise buildings, like the penthouses at the Ritz-Carlton, offer balconies with views of the Dallas skyline. Most home prices fall between $875,000 and $2,495,000.

Running, cycling and getting outside
One of the most popular Uptown green spaces is the Katy Trail, a tree-lined, 3.5-mile trail that follows the abandoned path of the old Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad. Cole Park features several places for fitness enthusiasts such as an outdoor basketball court, pickleball and tennis courts, and a children’s playground. When the Texas heat and tropical storms roll through, residents may opt for indoor recreation at the various gyms or cycling facilities. And when it’s time to slow down and escape the grind, cemeteries provide central, grounded spaces for calm walks and quiet reflection.

Commute by trolley, light rail or car
Uptown’s location near Downtown and U.S. 75 Central Expressway adds to the neighborhood’s appeal. The complimentary M-line trolley and the Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) light rail trains connect Uptown to surrounding areas. Uptown is just 5 miles away from the Dallas Love Field Airport, a Southwest Airlines hub, so planes frequently fly overhead. The city’s larger airport — Dallas Fort-Worth International Airport — is about 20 miles from Uptown. Baylor Scott & White Hospital is about 2 miles away, as is A. Webb Roberts Hospital.
