According to D Magazine: What city officials say: “Keeping a ‘village feel’ remains a focal point for the residents in this small, Texas city bordered by Lewisville Lake and two larger, expanding communities (Flower Mound and Lewisville). With its natural, rolling, wooded terrain, Highland Village...occupies approximately 5.5 square miles. No longer a lakeside hamlet, Highland Village has undergone a metamorphosis into an affluent bedroom community.” What the demographers say: Like most suburbs, Highland Village lacks diversity. Although the mayor is African-American, only 0.4 percent of the population is, compared to 94.2 percent Caucasian. It’s a family place, with 53.3 percent of households including children under 18. Only 3.2 percent of residents rent. What the residents say: The residents of Highland Village are its PR machine. They adore their upscale, lakeside town. “A huge majority of people who make up Highland Village are centered around their children. We have some people whose most important asset is their assets. But for most, it’s their children.” What the Realtors say: While expansive sections of grand, new homes are still being built, many sales are from pre-owned houses in older, established neighborhoods (those that are rumored to be the weekend getaways of Park Cities residents in the 1950s and ’60s). There are few homes here for under $140,000, but you can spend up to $1 million, if so inclined. What we say: It’s easy to live in Highland Village. Horses live next to the new City Hall facility, which is set up with customer service in mind. They’re building a 12-foot-wide trail throughout the city, tying lakefronts to neighborhoods to schools. Police will leave you a little note if you forget to lock your car or close your garage. And if you’ve ever eaten the portobello mushrooms at Grotto’s, you’ll never need to go back to the big city for fine dining.
