The honest part
What to know first
- The Village sits away from SH 121, which limits convenient access and foot traffic.
- Keller ISD addresses carry a combined rate of 1.860611, compared with 1.644011 in GCISD.
- New home supply is thin, with 41 residential permits in 2023.
Not its strength: walkable, quiet, small-town pace, vibrant, big-city energy, a real downtown, restaurants, shopping, new construction.
Not rated yet: transit options, nightlife, lake days, golf, horses welcome. That means I haven't confirmed it either way, not that it isn't here.
