Anyone ever live in the Overton Ridge Blvd apartments near S Hulen?

If so, what are they like? Is the area safe, etc? What is there to do in that area?

Nobody knows where that area is? One of my main concerns is safety.

I don't think that area is generally regarded as unsafe. I've known several people from work that have lived in that area and I don't remember any complaints. There's a lot to do in that area. That's probably one of the biggest retail concentrations in the city of Fort Worth, so if you like to shop and eat, you shouldn't run out of options. It's a pretty reasonable travel distance from the Trinity Trails, downtown, and the Cultural District.

One negative about the area: It is smack in the middle of construction for the Chisolm Trail tollway, but that will be done in less than 2 years. You'll have a tollway running through the neighborhood, but you'll be able to get to downtown and the west side in less than 10 minutes. I'm shocked that the traffic panic crowd hasn't jumped all over this thread to let you know that you might have to sit through a red light for more than 20 seconds to get to Starbucks in the morning. Go figure.

Thanks for the insight. I did notice the construction, which might be a problem because of the noise. I'm only going to be staying there for a short period of time, so I'm not too worried about that. I just didn't want to be in an area that's unsafe, or a place that's away from everything.

My son lives in The Enclave and he never speaks of issues there. I've been there to visit and I would have no problem living there.
