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, FEMA flood maps, county appraisal districts.
