That's Near West Side. It's hard to see.

Gosh...I think you might get a lot of interpretations from that map. May I ask what you're using it for?

Some people define areas according to the school districts....ie NEISD, which really is more North than East. Reagan and Churchill and Lee high schools are definitely NOT even close to being East anywhere, but they fall in the NE school dist.

And downtown...is just downtown. I suppose if this is for your person use, and if it makes sense to you then that's all that matters. The city is growing so fast that a lot of the areas are becoming hard to define. The Near EAST side is definitely much different than the far East area which is more rural and less developed. Sorry...I'm sort of rambling.

LF....the Realtor maps are pretty helpful.....do they not suit your purposes?

Honestly I wasn't asking for personal suggestions as I know it differs from one to the other. I was simply asking if what I posted was as close as it gets.
Thanks for clarifying. That's all I needed to know. Now everyone else who replies will know what to expect.

I'd get rid of the near west side and make that the "west side" then use 410 as the boundary from "west side" to "far west side".

Sorry but if you ask the people who live their 90% will say it is the "far west side".

I know...weird replying to my own post. This is more of an edit/clarification. Somehow when I posted last night I totally missed the second page with additional explanations. Good luck with your project.
