Have lived in Ft. Worth but Crowley ISD for six years-Crowley proper is a great hometown place. Look at both high schools-they have a lot of differences. Crowley does not have all the shopping stuff 'poppin up' (I don't view these places as desirable to be right down my street, but depends on what you want...) however, hop on 35 to Burleson-5 minutes-and you have just about everything you could want in eating and shopping choices. The school district has suffered some growing pains, but they are making a great effort to improve and I have seen the improvements. New principal at N.Crowley school is great. I think a big difference between Crowley and Mansfield is the city vs. country aspect. We looked at Mansfield before we moved here and preferred Crowley, though we are actually located in Fort Worth.

Where ever you go there will be crime and there is a little crime in every school, town and country. Some just have less then others. I moved from Bermuda to Scotland and now after 15years in Scotland, we are moving to Crowley Texas. Mainly for the Christian environment throughout the town and schools, it's the friendly people that make Crowley a worth while place to live in.
I live in Creekside too!!! When did you guys move in? We've moved in last month. How do you like the subdivision?

We haven't moved in as yet but, our home is not built yet... it should be finished in June. We really like the subdivision and looking forward to next year. We are on Paddle Drive, where are you located?

We're on Keel Line Dr. Welcome to the neighborhood. Hope you like it here. My wife and I love it here. It's very quiet. Of course most of the houses on our street are still vacant so that will probably change soon.

Default crowley or mansfield

Hi, Im 23 and I've lived in Crowley most of my life other then going off to college. I also work in Mansfield. I think you can't go wrong with either city. Both have lots of shops popping up. Right off 35 in between burleson and crowley are tons of new, great shops and restuarants. I think Mansfield is a great place to live also.

I live in mansfield currently and can tell you that to raise a family it is awesome. The people here are very family oriented. The schools are top notch. As for taxes you get what you pay for. Crime here is very low and sporadic at its worst. My kids in 10th and 6th grade love it here. It is growing but keeps the small town feel. We are relocating to Crowley for my husbands work and I am so sad to leave my home and subdivision.

I'm glad you think so. Because I'm finnishing up my last year in North Crowley High, and I, like every other senior at that school, think he's a warden and ol' NCHS is turning into a prison.

Seriously, North Crowley is a good school and this part of Ft. Worth is the best area to live in.

P.S. As a former football player, I'm supposed to HATE Mansfield. It's been implanted in me for the past 3 years, ha ha ha.

GO PANTHERS!!!!!!!!!!!

Crowley is a good school I would rather stay move to Mansfield than Crowley, though. Mansfield is close to Arlington, too.
