Best Neighborhoods in Hurst, TX

Hurst is the kind of place that wins on arithmetic rather than flash. Sitting almost exactly in the middle of the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex, this Tarrant County city of roughly 40,000 people anchors the western end of the "Mid-Cities" — the Hurst–Euless–Bedford triad that fills the gap between two downtowns. It has no skyline, no signature festival, and no trophy master-planned community with a gatehouse. What it has is a ten-minute drive to DFW International Airport, home prices well under what you'd pay one exit north in Colleyville or Keller, and neighborhoods with fifty-year-old shade trees that actually shade something.

That combination has kept Hurst quietly in demand for decades. The city grew up around the Rock Island Railroad in the early twentieth century, took its name from landowner William L. Hurst, and did most of its building in the postwar boom between 1955 and 1985. The result is a housing stock that skews older and a street grid that feels finished rather than under construction — mature landscaping, established block-by-block character, and very little raw land left to develop. If you want a house built in 2024, you'll be looking somewhere else. If you want a 1,900-square-foot brick ranch on a quarter acre with a fenced backyard, twenty minutes from either downtown, Hurst is one of the last places in central DFW where that's still attainable.

Below is a neighborhood-by-neighborhood guide to Hurst for renters, buyers, and anyone weighing a move to the Mid-Cities — including what each area costs, what it's near, who it suits, and where to find storage when your new place turns out to have less closet space than the old one.

HURST HOUSING & RENTAL MARKET OVERVIEW

Hurst's median home price sits in the low $300,000s — roughly $310,000 by most 2026 market summaries, with the bulk of transactions landing between $280,000 and $380,000. Listing-price medians run higher, sometimes considerably so, because the thin inventory at the top of the market skews the number. What matters for a buyer is the working range: a well-kept three-bedroom brick home of 1,600 to 2,000 square feet, built between 1965 and 1985, updated to some degree, on a quarter-acre lot.

That price point is the whole argument for Hurst. North Richland Hills runs about $375,000. Grapevine is closer to $475,000. Keller sits north of $550,000. All three are within twenty-five minutes, all three draw from comparable job centers, and none of them beats Hurst's airport commute. Buyers who prioritize location and square footage over prestige and new construction consistently find Hurst the best arithmetic in central Tarrant County.

The trade-offs are real and worth naming. Homes here are old enough that inspections matter — original cast-iron plumbing, aging HVAC systems, and 1970s electrical panels turn up regularly, and the difference between a renovated home and a deferred-maintenance one can be $60,000 of work. Property taxes run 2.3% to 2.5% of assessed value annually, which on a $310,000 home is roughly $7,100 to $7,750 a year. Texas has no state income tax, which offsets a good deal of that for higher earners, but it needs to be in the monthly budget from day one.

Appreciation has been steady rather than dramatic — generally in the 3% to 5% annual range over the past five years. Hurst is not a speculation market. It's a hold market, supported by durable demand from airport and airline employees, HEB ISD families, and DFW professionals who need to reach both downtowns.

For renters, the picture is a little more constrained. Hurst is predominantly owner-occupied, and its apartment stock is concentrated along a handful of corridors rather than distributed throughout the city. Citywide average rent lands somewhere between $1,150 and $1,400 depending on which tracker you consult and how the unit mix is weighted — either way, meaningfully below the national average. One-bedrooms cluster around $1,050 to $1,200, two-bedrooms around $1,360 to $1,550. Single-family rentals are where the interior neighborhoods open up, but they're scarce and they lease fast, typically at $1,800 to $2,300 for a three-bedroom house. Renters who want a specific school zone should start looking two to three months ahead of their move date, not two to three weeks.

1. BELLAIRE PARK & BELLAIRE HEIGHTS — MOST SOUGHT-AFTER IN HURST

If Hurst has a flagship, it's the cluster of neighborhoods around Bellaire Drive in the city's central-north section. Bellaire Park and the adjacent Bellaire Heights and Bellaire Place additions are the addresses local agents point to first, and the reason is straightforward: Bellaire Elementary is among the strongest-rated campuses in HEB ISD, the homes were built with more generous square footage than the earlier 1960s tracts, and the streets have the deep tree canopy that takes half a century to produce.

Housing here runs to traditional single-story and split-level brick homes from the 1970s and early 1980s, typically 1,700 to 2,300 square feet on lots of a quarter to a third of an acre. A high proportion have been renovated over the past decade — updated kitchens, opened floor plans, replaced windows — which is part of why the neighborhood carries a premium over the rest of the city. Turnover is low. Homes that come to market in Bellaire Park routinely see interest from buyers who have been watching the neighborhood for a year or more.

The location works hard. You're minutes from Chisholm Park, close to the Bellaire Drive and Precinct Line retail nodes, and a short hop from both TX-183 and Loop 820. Renters will find very little here — this is an owner-occupancy stronghold — but the occasional private-landlord single-family lease does appear, usually well above the citywide average.

Median Home Price: $320,000–$420,000 (renovated homes at the upper end) | Average Rent: Very limited inventory; 3BR homes $2,000–$2,400/month where available

Safety: Among the strongest crime profiles in Hurst. The neighborhood's interior street layout keeps through-traffic minimal, owner-occupancy is high, and residents report active neighborhood communication and long tenure.

Walkability / Transit: Sidewalks are in good repair and the neighborhood is genuinely pleasant on foot for recreation, with school and park destinations walkable from many blocks. Errands still require a car. Trinity Metro bus service in Hurst is limited; the nearest rail is the TEXRail station at North Richland Hills/Smithfield, about ten minutes north by car.

Top Amenities:

• Bellaire Elementary School — One of the highest-rated elementary campuses in HEB ISD and the single biggest driver of demand in this pocket
• Chisholm Park — Hurst's premier park, with sports fields, playgrounds, walking trails, ponds, and picnic areas, minutes away
• Central Aquatics Center — City-operated aquatics facility with programming for all ages
• Hurst Recreation Center — Full fitness facility, classes, and city recreation programming
• Bellaire Drive retail — Grocery, pharmacy, and everyday services within a five-minute drive
• Northeast Mall — 150-plus stores and the region's largest concentrated retail, about five minutes south

Best For: Families prioritizing elementary school assignment, buyers who want the strongest resale position in Hurst, move-up buyers coming from smaller Mid-Cities homes, anyone who plans to stay ten years or more and wants a neighborhood that holds its value.

Nearest 10 Federal Storage Location:

• 10 Federal Storage — 7510 Smithfield Rd, North Richland Hills — Climate-controlled units roughly ten minutes north, well suited to the renovation projects that are common in this neighborhood's older housing stock; a place to park furniture and boxed contents while a kitchen or flooring job runs its course

2. MAYFAIR — BEST ARCHITECTURAL CHARACTER & MATURE LOTS

Mayfair is where Hurst gets interesting architecturally. Where much of the city delivers competent postwar brick, Mayfair delivers custom and semi-custom homes with beamed ceilings, brick fireplaces, leaded-glass windows, formal dining rooms, and the occasional pool — built on cul-de-sacs and curving streets under a canopy that is genuinely impressive by DFW suburban standards. Listings here regularly use the word "stately," and for once it isn't entirely marketing.

This is a smaller and more heterogeneous neighborhood than Bellaire Park, which is part of its appeal. Homes vary in size, era, and style rather than repeating a builder's three floor plans down the block. Lots tend to be larger. Some sections fall within Birdville ISD rather than HEB ISD, which is a meaningful distinction worth verifying street by street before you commit — the two districts have different campuses, different feeder patterns, and different reputations depending on who you ask.

Mayfair's central position gives it quick access to Pipeline Road, Precinct Line Road, and Boulevard 26, which in practice means most of Hurst's retail and both major freeways are inside ten minutes. Inventory is genuinely thin; buyers who want Mayfair specifically should expect to wait for the right house rather than choose among several.

Median Home Price: $330,000–$475,000, with custom homes and pool properties extending higher | Average Rent: Rare; 3BR–4BR homes $2,100–$2,600/month on the infrequent occasions they appear

Safety: Strong. Cul-de-sac and curvilinear street design eliminates cut-through traffic, and the neighborhood's long-tenured owner base produces the informal watchfulness that tends to correlate with low property crime.

Walkability / Transit: Pleasant for walking and cycling within the neighborhood — this is the part of Hurst where an evening walk is actually a pleasure rather than an errand. Commercial destinations require a car. No direct rail access; TEXRail's Smithfield station is roughly a ten-to-twelve minute drive.

Top Amenities:

• Mature tree canopy — Among the best in the Mid-Cities, with a measurable effect on summer comfort and curb appeal
• Larger lot sizes — Room for pools, workshops, and detached storage that newer DFW subdivisions simply don't offer
• Central Hurst access — Pipeline Road, Precinct Line Road, and Boulevard 26 all within minutes
• Hurst Public Library — Modern facility with strong community programming
• Hurst Conference Center — Civic and event space that anchors the central city
• Tarrant County College Northeast Campus — Community college access for continuing education, about ten minutes away

Best For: Buyers who want character over conformity, families needing four bedrooms or a home office, anyone with a boat, project car, or workshop habit that needs lot space, buyers willing to wait for the right house rather than settle for the available one.

Nearest 10 Federal Storage Location:

• 10 Federal Storage — 3802 Rufe Snow Dr, North Richland Hills — Roughly ten minutes northwest, with drive-up access that suits the seasonal and hobby storage needs common to larger-lot households — holiday decor, patio furniture, sporting equipment, and the overflow that accumulates in a house you've lived in for fifteen years

3. NORTH HURST & THE PRECINCT LINE CORRIDOR — BEST AMENITIES & NEWEST INVENTORY

The 76054 ZIP code covering northern Hurst is the city's most amenity-dense quadrant and its closest approximation of newer suburban living. Subdivisions including Shady Oaks, Valentine Oaks, Woodbridge, Oakwood Park, Prestondale, and Wintergreen fill the area between Precinct Line Road and Grapevine Highway, and the housing here generally runs a decade or two newer than central Hurst — more two-story floor plans, more attached-garage-forward elevations, fewer 1960s ranches.

Location is the draw. You're on the doorstep of Colleyville and Grapevine without paying Colleyville or Grapevine prices. Precinct Line Road and TX-26 put a dense strip of grocery, dining, medical, and service retail within five minutes in either direction. DFW Airport is a genuinely short drive, and Grapevine Mills, the Grapevine Main Street district, and NRH2O Family Water Park are all inside fifteen minutes.

This is also where a good share of Hurst's newer rental product sits, including some of the more recent multifamily along the Grapevine Highway corridor. Rents run above the citywide average, and so do home prices — but the premium buys proximity to the metroplex's northeast entertainment cluster and a shorter airport run than almost anywhere else in Tarrant County.

Median Home Price: $340,000–$460,000, varying widely by subdivision and build year | Average Rent: 1BR $1,150–$1,400/month; 2BR $1,450–$1,800/month; 3BR homes $2,100–$2,500/month

Safety: Solid across the area, consistent with Hurst's below-average citywide crime profile. The corridor's commercial density means slightly more transient activity along the main roads than in the interior residential streets, which is typical of any retail-adjacent suburban area.

Walkability / Transit: The most functionally walkable part of Hurst in the practical sense — several residential pockets sit within walking distance of grocery and dining along Precinct Line and TX-26. It's still a car-first environment overall. TEXRail's North Richland Hills/Smithfield station is the closest rail option at roughly eight to ten minutes, providing a one-seat ride to DFW Airport Terminal B and downtown Fort Worth.

Top Amenities:

• Precinct Line Road retail corridor — Hurst's deepest concentration of grocery, dining, medical, and everyday services
• DFW International Airport — Approximately ten minutes, the shortest airport commute of any Tarrant County suburb
• Colleyville and Grapevine adjacency — Upscale dining, Grapevine Main Street, and Lake Grapevine recreation within fifteen minutes
• NRH2O Family Water Park — Regional water park roughly ten minutes west in North Richland Hills
• Grapevine Mills — Major outlet and entertainment complex, about ten to fifteen minutes northeast
• TEXRail Smithfield Station — Commuter rail to DFW Airport and downtown Fort Worth, a short drive away

Best For: Airline and airport employees, frequent business travelers, buyers who want newer construction without leaving the Mid-Cities price band, renters seeking modern apartment product, households that want Colleyville-adjacent amenities on a Hurst budget.

Nearest 10 Federal Storage Location:

• 10 Federal Storage — 7510 Smithfield Rd, North Richland Hills — About eight minutes west, near Iron Horse Golf Course and Loop 820. Climate-controlled units are worth the modest premium here for anyone storing electronics, documents, instruments, or upholstered furniture through a North Texas summer

4. SHADY BROOK & BROOKHOLLOW — BEST FOR FAMILIES & PARK ACCESS

Shady Brook and Brookhollow occupy the practical middle of the Hurst market: solid family neighborhoods, good school access, sensible prices, and the city's best proximity to parks and recreation. Neither has Bellaire Park's cachet or Mayfair's architecture. Both deliver exactly what a family with school-age kids is usually shopping for.

Shady Brook centers on Shady Brook Elementary and carries a modest premium for it, with a high share of remodeled homes in the 1,700-to-2,200-square-foot range on quarter-acre lots. Brookhollow sits slightly lower on price with a similar profile — 1,500 to 1,900 square feet, 1970s and early 1980s construction, quiet interior streets, and Brookhollow Park within the neighborhood itself. Both areas have the sidewalks, cul-de-sacs, and low through-traffic that make a difference when kids are learning to ride bikes.

The recreational picture is the real selling point. Chisholm Park and Hurst Community Park are both close, the Central Aquatics Center and Hurst Recreation Center are minutes away, and the city's youth sports leagues, summer camps, and seasonal programming are unusually robust for a city this size. Families who move here tend to plug in quickly.

Median Home Price: Shady Brook $310,000–$400,000; Brookhollow $280,000–$360,000 | Average Rent: 3BR single-family homes $1,850–$2,200/month; limited apartment inventory within the neighborhoods themselves

Safety: Consistently strong. These are the neighborhoods most often cited by local agents for families specifically, and the combination of interior street layout, high owner-occupancy, and active parent networks supports that.

Walkability / Transit: Above average for Hurst in the ways that matter to families — walkable to schools and neighborhood parks from many blocks, with sidewalks generally in good condition. Shopping and dining require a car. No direct transit; plan on driving.

Top Amenities:

• Chisholm Park — Hurst's largest and best-equipped park, with sports fields, playgrounds, trails, ponds, and picnic facilities
• Hurst Community Park — Additional playgrounds, sports space, and open green area
• Brookhollow Park — Neighborhood park with playground and sports courts, within walking distance for much of Brookhollow
• Shady Brook Elementary — Well-regarded HEB ISD campus at the center of the Shady Brook neighborhood
• Central Aquatics Center — Municipal aquatics with lessons, open swim, and seasonal programming
• Hurst youth sports leagues — Baseball, softball, soccer, and football programs with strong participation

Best For: Families with elementary and middle school children, first-time buyers moving up from a starter home or apartment, parents who want park and school access without paying the Bellaire Park premium, households that will actually use city recreation programming.

Nearest 10 Federal Storage Location:

• 10 Federal Storage — 3802 Rufe Snow Dr, North Richland Hills — Roughly ten minutes northwest. A practical option for families outgrowing a two-car garage: sports gear across three seasons, bikes, camping equipment, and the furniture you're keeping for the kid who hasn't moved out yet

5. HURST HILLS & REDBUD ESTATES — BEST CENTRAL VALUE

Hurst Hills sits southwest of Bellaire Park and southeast of Fair Oaks Park, and along with the nearby Redbud Estates addition it represents the best straight-value proposition in the city. These are 1960s and 1970s neighborhoods — ranch homes and modest two-stories in the 1,600-to-2,100-square-foot range, on lots of a fifth to three-tenths of an acre, with the mature landscaping that comes standard at this age.

What you're buying is central position at a discount. Everything in Hurst is within ten minutes. Both freeways are close. The retail along Pipeline Road and Bellaire Drive is minutes away. What you're giving up is the school-zone premium of Bellaire Park and, in many cases, the renovation work — a meaningful share of homes here still have original kitchens and baths, which is precisely why the prices are lower.

For a buyer with some appetite for a project, this is the most efficient entry point into an established Hurst neighborhood. Redbud Estates in particular is described locally as a well-settled community of midsize, reasonably priced homes that continues to attract steady buyer interest — the sort of description that translates to "nothing flashy, nothing wrong with it either."

Median Home Price: $270,000–$370,000 depending on condition and updates | Average Rent: 3BR homes $1,750–$2,050/month; some duplex and small multifamily inventory at $1,200–$1,500/month

Safety: Good, in line with citywide averages. These are quiet residential streets with a mix of long-tenured owners and newer arrivals, and no significant crime concentration.

Walkability / Transit: Car-dependent, though sidewalk coverage is reasonable and the neighborhoods are comfortable for recreational walking. Fair Oaks Park is walkable from parts of Hurst Hills. Transit is limited to Trinity Metro bus connections.

Top Amenities:

• Fair Oaks Park — Neighborhood green space on the western edge of the area
• Central Hurst position — Every major Hurst destination inside ten minutes, and both TX-183 and Loop 820 close at hand
• Pipeline Road services — Grocery, pharmacy, auto services, and casual dining within a short drive
• Renovation upside — A high share of unmodernized homes, which is a cost for some buyers and an opportunity for others
• Hurst Recreation Center — City fitness and programming, minutes away
• Tarrant County College Northeast Campus — Affordable higher education and workforce training nearby

Best For: First-time buyers, buyers comfortable with a renovation project, investors seeking rental yield in a stable submarket, anyone who values central location and lot size over finish level, households priced out of Bellaire Park or Mayfair who still want an established Hurst address.

Nearest 10 Federal Storage Location:

• 10 Federal Storage — 3802 Rufe Snow Dr, North Richland Hills — Roughly eight to ten minutes away and particularly relevant here, where renovation is common. Clearing a house to the studs is far easier when the contents are offsite, and month-to-month terms mean you're not locked in past the end of the project

6. HURSTVIEW & THE PIPELINE ROAD CORRIDOR — MOST AFFORDABLE, MOST RENTAL INVENTORY

The southern band of Hurst — Hurstview and the neighborhoods threading along Pipeline Road, West Hurst Boulevard, and the Airport Freeway frontage — is where the city is most accessible on price and where most of its renters actually live. Homes here are the oldest in Hurst, largely 1960s and early 1970s, typically 1,400 to 1,800 square feet on smaller lots. Apartment inventory is concentrated in this corridor, as is most of the city's duplex and small multifamily stock.

The character is more mixed than the interior neighborhoods: closer to the freeway, closer to commercial frontage, more traffic noise on the perimeter streets, and a higher share of rentals. In exchange, this is the most affordable way into Hurst by a comfortable margin, whether you're buying or leasing, and the commuting position is excellent — Airport Freeway is right there, Northeast Mall and its surrounding retail district are minutes away, and downtown Fort Worth is a straight fifteen-minute run.

For renters in particular, this is the practical answer. The corridor's apartment communities offer the widest selection in the city, the largest share of units at or below the citywide average rent, and the shortest lead time from search to move-in.

Median Home Price: $250,000–$330,000 | Average Rent: 1BR $1,000–$1,200/month; 2BR $1,300–$1,550/month; 3BR homes $1,700–$2,000/month

Safety: Generally acceptable and still below national crime averages, though this is the part of Hurst where conditions vary most from block to block. The commercial frontage and higher rental density mean it's worth visiting a specific address at different times of day before signing anything — standard practice for any freeway-adjacent suburban corridor.

Walkability / Transit: The most walkable part of Hurst in raw terms, with retail, grocery, and dining genuinely reachable on foot from many apartment communities. Sidewalk quality is inconsistent and the pedestrian experience along the major arterials is functional rather than pleasant. Trinity Metro bus service is more present here than elsewhere in the city.

Top Amenities:

• Northeast Mall — The region's largest enclosed retail center with 150-plus stores, minutes away
• Airport Freeway (TX-183) access — Direct connection to DFW Airport east and Fort Worth west
• Widest rental selection in Hurst — The city's deepest concentration of apartment and duplex inventory
• Pipeline Road commercial strip — Grocery, dining, services, and everyday retail within walking distance of many addresses
• Tarrant County College Northeast Campus — Close by, making this corridor popular with students
• Lowest entry price in the city — Both for buyers and renters

Best For: Renters on a budget, students at Tarrant County College, first-time buyers with limited down payment, single professionals commuting to Fort Worth or the airport, investors seeking cash-flowing rental property, anyone who wants a Hurst address and HEB ISD access at the lowest available cost.

Nearest 10 Federal Storage Location:

• 10 Federal Storage — 3802 Rufe Snow Dr, North Richland Hills — About ten minutes north. Especially useful for apartment renters in this corridor, where units run smaller and closet space is at a premium; a 5x10 handles seasonal clothing, luggage, and boxed belongings that don't fit a one-bedroom

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR HURST NEIGHBORHOOD

Hurst is small enough — under ten square miles — that no neighborhood is far from anything. The choice comes down to a handful of specific trade-offs rather than dramatic differences in lifestyle.

If schools are your first priority: Start with Bellaire Park and Shady Brook. Bellaire Elementary and Shady Brook Elementary carry the strongest reputations in the Hurst portion of HEB ISD, and both neighborhoods price accordingly. Verify your exact assignment with the district before you commit — HEB ISD boundaries in Hurst are genuinely irregular, and being one street over can mean a different campus. Note also that portions of northern and western Hurst fall in Birdville ISD rather than HEB ISD, which surprises buyers regularly.

If the airport commute drives your decision: North Hurst and the Precinct Line corridor. If you work at DFW, fly weekly, or work for an airline, this is the shortest reliable drive in Tarrant County, and it's not close. The premium over central Hurst is real but modest.

If you want the most house for the money: Hurst Hills, Redbud Estates, and Brookhollow. Accept that you're likely buying original kitchens and baths, budget accordingly, and you'll land in a well-located established neighborhood for meaningfully less than the citywide median.

If you're renting: The Pipeline Road and Airport Freeway corridor has the inventory. North Hurst has the newer product at higher rents. The interior neighborhoods have very little — if you want a single-family rental in Bellaire Park or Mayfair, start looking early and be ready to move quickly when something lists.

If character matters more than convenience: Mayfair. Larger lots, more architectural variety, better tree canopy, and homes that don't look like the three next to them. Expect thin inventory and be prepared to wait.

If you have a boat, RV, workshop, or serious hobby footprint: Mayfair and the larger-lot sections of Bellaire Park offer the most room. Everywhere else in Hurst, plan on offsite storage — lot sizes in the postwar tracts don't accommodate much beyond two cars.

A practical note on home age: Roughly speaking, everything in Hurst was built between 1955 and 1990. Get a thorough inspection, ask specifically about plumbing material, electrical panel type, foundation history, and HVAC age, and treat the inspection report as a negotiating document. The spread between a renovated Hurst home and an original one is wide enough that the same street can show a $100,000 price gap.

SELF STORAGE IN HURST — 10 FEDERAL STORAGE LOCATIONS

Being straightforward about this: 10 Federal Storage does not currently operate a facility inside Hurst city limits. The two nearest locations are both in North Richland Hills, immediately northwest, and given Hurst's compact footprint, most Hurst addresses reach either one in eight to twelve minutes.

That's worth knowing up front, because storage in Hurst is less optional than it is in newer suburbs. The city's housing stock predates the era of oversized garages, walk-in closets, and dedicated bonus rooms. A 1972 ranch has a two-car garage that fits two cars and not much else, closets sized for a much smaller wardrobe, and no attic worth the name. Add a renovation project, a growing family, or an inherited houseful of furniture, and the math stops working quickly.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT HURST NEIGHBORHOODS

What is the best neighborhood in Hurst, TX?

Bellaire Park is the most consistently sought-after, driven by Bellaire Elementary's reputation, larger home sizes, and a high share of renovated properties. Mayfair leads on architectural character and lot size. North Hurst wins on amenities and airport proximity. The honest answer depends on whether schools, character, commute, or price is your first filter.

Is Hurst, TX a safe place to live?

Yes. Crime rates in Hurst run below the national average, and the city consistently rates well on safety in resident surveys. Conditions vary somewhat by area — the interior residential neighborhoods are the strongest, while the freeway and commercial corridors along Pipeline Road and Airport Freeway show more variation block to block, which is typical of any suburban retail frontage.

What school district serves Hurst?

Most of Hurst is served by Hurst–Euless–Bedford ISD, a district of roughly 22,000 students with L.D. Bell and Trinity as its high schools. Portions of northern and western Hurst fall within Birdville ISD instead. Boundaries are irregular enough that you should verify the exact assignment for any specific address with the district directly rather than relying on a listing.

How much does it cost to live in Hurst?

The median home price sits in the low $300,000s, with most transactions between $280,000 and $380,000. Citywide average rent runs roughly $1,150 to $1,400 depending on unit mix, well below the national average. Property taxes are the significant line item at 2.3% to 2.5% of assessed value annually, though Texas levies no state income tax.

Is Hurst a good place for commuters?

It's among the best positioned cities in the entire metroplex. DFW Airport is about ten minutes, downtown Fort Worth fifteen to twenty, downtown Dallas twenty-five to thirty, Alliance and Las Colinas roughly twenty each, and Arlington fifteen. Very few DFW addresses reach that many job centers that quickly.

Can you live in Hurst without a car?

Realistically, no. Hurst is a driving city. Trinity Metro bus service exists but is limited, and the nearest commuter rail is TEXRail's North Richland Hills/Smithfield station, which requires a drive to reach. The Pipeline Road corridor is the most walkable area for daily errands, but a car remains necessary for most households.

Is Hurst affordable compared to nearby cities?

Substantially. Against a Hurst median in the low $300,000s, North Richland Hills runs around $375,000, Grapevine around $475,000, and Keller north of $550,000. Hurst gives up some school ratings and new-construction inventory in exchange, but the location value is the strongest in its price band.

How old are homes in Hurst?

Most were built between the mid-1950s and 1990, with the heaviest concentration in the 1960s and 1970s. New construction exists but is uncommon — there is very little undeveloped land left. Many homes have been renovated, and the price spread between an updated home and an original one on the same street can approach $100,000.

Where do renters find the most options in Hurst?

The Pipeline Road, West Hurst Boulevard, and Airport Freeway corridor holds the majority of the city's apartment inventory and the largest share of units at or below the citywide average. North Hurst along Grapevine Highway has the newer product at higher rents. The interior neighborhoods offer very little rental inventory of any kind.

Does 10 Federal Storage have a location in Hurst?

Not within Hurst city limits. The two nearest facilities are in North Richland Hills — 7510 Smithfield Rd and 3802 Rufe Snow Dr — both typically eight to twelve minutes from a Hurst address. Given how compact Hurst is, that's a shorter drive than many residents make to their own grocery store.
