Newer neighborhood in the Metroplex

Sitting in the northwest corner of the Metroplex, The Bar Ranch neighborhood offers an HOA community outside of city limits. Established in 2005, it is one of the newer areas around Dallas-Fort Worth, featuring suburban living while only about 13 miles from the hustle and bustle of Downtown Fort Worth. "It's quiet. You don't hear a lot of noise or traffic, which is a big selling point," says Century 21 Judge Fite Company Realtor Skylar Winingham, who lives nearby. Students here also have access to an excellent school system, according to Winingham. The neighborhood also receives a 2 out of 10 on the CAP Index Crime Score, compared to the national average of 4.
