Highland Terrace, located between US-75 and North Central Expressway, is a residential and commuter-friendly Richardson neighborhood with mature shade trees and mid-century brick homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Belt Line Road and Plano Road corridor, where taquerias, independent cafés, and small service storefronts set a steady, everyday rhythm. Single-story ranch houses and tidy duplex pockets sit on calm blocks with sidewalks and long driveways. Huffhines Park and the Spring Creek Greenway frame outdoor routines with trails, fields, and open lawns. The nearby Eisemann Center adds a polished cultural note for evenings out. DART’s Arapaho Center Station keeps regional trips straightforward without changing the neighborhood’s quiet feel.
