A planned neighborhood in southeastern Springfield
On the crests of the southeastern Springfield hills is the aptly named Southern Hills neighborhood. This 1950s planned community is known for its nature-focused design, which can be seen without even getting out of the car. “Driving through, you’ll notice people pushing strollers and walking dogs,” says Adam Graddy, a Realtor with Keller Williams. “With the large lots and places to hike, people spend a lot of time outside.” The neighborhood’s private pool club adds an additional element of the outdoors. Southern Hills focuses on long-term development through its Community Improvement District, where neighbors work to restore older homes and preserve local waters.
Southern Hills is an established, nature-focused neighborhood in south east Springfield.
The Southern Hills ponds are home to various waterfowl including swans.

Southern Hills has desirable midcentury homes
Southern Hills' winding roads are flanked by tall trees. Large ponds, fed by Galloway Creek and surrounded by native plants, make for scenic walks and drives, though sidewalks are not always available. “Southern Hills is coveted for the mid-century architecture you can find here,” Graddy says. Ranch-style houses built in the ‘50s, ‘60s and ‘70s have low-pitched roofs and yards of about a third of an acre. Prices range from $200,000 to $500,000 for three-to-five bedrooms, depending on size and condition.
Homes throughout Southern Hills are surrounded by large, mature trees.
Some homes in Southern Hills occupy larger lots.

Hiking trails loop from the school to the swim club
Bordering the neighborhood on the west is the Galloway Creek Greenway, a 4-mile paved trail that connects Pershing K-8 School to the Springfield Conservation Nature Center. The cycling and walking trail is popular as a getaway or as a means of visiting the Nature Center's educational exhibits on the history and ecology of the area. Southern Hills Swim Club sponsors the Dolphins swim team, and also welcomes tennis and pickleball players. Established in 1969, this members-only complex also maintains a kiddie pool and lounge areas. Swim lessons are available.

Springfield festival honors Japanese sister city
Downtown Springfield hosts more than two dozen annual events and festivals, such as the St. Patrick’s Day Parade and the Downtown Springfield Christmas Parade. At the Japanese Fall Festival, the city celebrates its nearly 40-year kinship with its sister city, Isesaki, Japan. Isesaki residents travel to Springfield every year to participate in performances and demonstrations at the festival.
Southern Hills residents drive to get around
Just over 6 miles from downtown Springfield, Southern Hills is close to the Schoolcraft Freeway, which goes south to Arkansas or north to the rest of Missouri. Getting downtown takes around 15 to 20 minutes, depending on traffic conditions. Though most residents drive, public transportation is available via bus routes throughout the city. Mercy Hospital is 3 miles from the neighborhood, but smaller clinics and specialists’ offices are even closer. To catch a nonstop flight to 15 destinations within the U.S., Southern Hills residents drive 18 miles to reach the Springfield-Branson National Airport.
