Highland Park is a separate Dallas County town adjoining University Park; together they are commonly called the Park Cities. Turtle Creek is a defining feature, with Lakeside Park extending along the water between Beverly Drive and Armstrong Parkway. The town maintains its own parks and municipal services within the Dallas urban area.

### Places to know

**Lakeside Park.** Walking paths and public green space along Turtle Creek.

### Check at the address, not the town name

- Confirm the town boundary and applicable school attendance zone for the specific address; the Park Cities label alone does not determine either.
- School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: [TEA school district locator](https://tea.texas.gov/families-and-students/school-district-locator/school-district-locator?ref=tx.co), [FEMA flood maps](https://msc.fema.gov/portal/home?ref=tx.co), [county appraisal districts](https://comptroller.texas.gov/taxes/property-tax/county-directory/?ref=tx.co).
