Far North Dallas

Home / Far North Dallas

Sandwiched between Addison and Richardson, rising north of Interstate 635 to Belt Line Road is Far North Dallas. The schools, plus proximity to shopping centers and equidistant between downtown and Frisco, have recently attracted many young families with children.

While made up of many neighborhoods, the North Dallas Neighborhood Alliance creates some cohesion. Of note are the 6.3-mile Preston Ridge Trail and the Galleria, a multistory mall featuring lots of shopping and an ice-skating rink.
