Affectionately known for its scenic landscape and charming older homes, the Crestview community is regarded as the model environment to raise a family.  With over 21,000 residents some of whom have lived there for nearly five decades, couples both young and old are attracted to the town’s calming serenity.

With Anderson Lane forming the border to the north, Justin Lane to the south, North Lamar Boulevard to the east and Burnet Road to the west, Crestview boasts the perfect balance of locally owned businesses and residential housing.  In addition, residents can shop nearby at The Arboretum and Northcross Malls, or can relax by the public pool at Beverly S. Scheffield Northwest Park. 

As more and more families of different ethnicities and socioeconomic backgrounds slowly move in, schools in and near Crestview have developed as well.  As part of the A.I.S.D., younger children attend Brentwood Elementary before heading to Lamar Middle School and, eventually, McCallum High.  In addition, the active neighborhood association hosts several annual events such as an ice cream social every July to continue to foster a warm, friendly neighborhood environment.

With its noticeable amenities and near-downtown location, the reasons for the steady influx of new families into this charming neighborhood are no mystery.  Most of the nicely-aged homes are between 1,000 and 1,200 square feet with 2-3 bedrooms and 1 bath and are reasonably affordable.
