Well-located Richardson suburb 20 miles outside of Dallas

Buyers will make a smart decision living in Yale, a well-positioned Richardson neighborhood with streets named after institutions like Harvard and Drexel. The community is located just northeast of downtown Dallas, making it a choice location for commuters. "Yale has a strategic location with access to the interstate, retail areas and major corporate employers," says Realtor Laura Crowl with Briggs Freeman Sotheby's International. Crowl is a longtime Dallas resident with over 20 years of experience. "So it's a really valuable location for commuters." Named after a renowned Ivy League university, it makes sense that the neighborhood is also positioned in an area known for its excellent schools, making it popular with families.

Getting around Richardson

Yale is located near President George Bush Turnpike and Highway 75, putting residents less than 20 miles from downtown Dallas. Local highways make it easy to connect elsewhere in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. "Highway 75 is highly used," says Debra Lustberg-Papert, a local and Ebby-Halliday Realtor. "It's important if you want to commute into Dallas for any reason." The highway is significant due to the neighborhood's car-dependent nature. The nearest hospital is Methodist Regional Medical Center. When residents want to travel beyond the Metroplex, the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport is less than 4 miles away.
