Fort Worth in Crowley ISD

If your west of Hulen the housing and neighborhoods are in general a lot better. I would not go east of Hulen. The area has changed a lot the past 5 years. The school system is also changing things a bit for next year. The 5th grade will not be in the elem. school any longer. I think the elem. schools are good but you don't want to go to the middle school on up.

Agreed. The area around Southwest HS and where N. Crowley are were the areas to live in when I was growing up. Recently I went back into the area to look into some RE investments. Wow, things have changed and not for the better.

The people on my street are hardworking and the children well behaved and polite. I do not have young children any more so am not involved in the schools. Crime is everywhere and you must take steps for yourself in order to not be involved.
My garage is cleaned out so my car is inside at all times. I do not shop or drive at nite. My windows are not unlocked or open in my home, I do not mention or brag about any assets I own. I get in my car, lock it, then open the garage door. This sounds like horrible things to have to do, but it is what you should do anywhere not just in this area. I did this in MI. In the daytime I freely work in my yard, but lock the door from the garage going into my house. I wave and say HI to my neighbors but stay to myself. It was a culture shock when I moved down here. I would say that there is only about 5% of my race in this sub. Hope to stay here for quite awhile.

Was going to move to your neighborhood but they sold out. What do you think of the other Fox and Jacobs subdivision Parkview. Also, is your and the surrounding neighborhoods racially diverse?
