When people refer to \u201cTCU\u201d as a neighborhood, they generally speak of the neighborhoods built between 1920 and 1960 that surround the school.<\/p>\n<p>Park Hill, Berkeley Place, Sisk Heights, University Place, University West, Bluebonnet Hills, Bluebonnet Place, Kellis Park, Wilshire, Westcliff, Westcliff West, Colonial Hills, and Worth Heights are all \u201cTCU neighborhoods.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Focus on neighborhoods in 76109 for shopping, dining, quality public schools, and parks.<\/h3>\n<p>In a broader sense, the Tanglewood and Overton communities are also part of the TCU area; however, locals think of a TCU area home as primarily Tudor architecture from the 1920s or Mid-Century style homes built in the 1950s.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2414\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2414\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2414 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/tcu-homes.jpg\" alt=\"A TCU area home\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/tcu-homes.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/tcu-homes-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/tcu-homes-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2414\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A TCU area home<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>These neighborhoods were built about the same time as the Arlington Heights area homes as Fort Worth expanded its footprint in the 1920s. Before that time, most residential buildings were in the near Southside areas of Fairmount, Elizabeth Blvd., and Ryan Place and in several downtown districts, which are now mostly gone. Other residences were located around Samuels Blvd northeast of downtown.<\/p>\n<h3>TCU Overlay District requires investors to register their property.<\/h3>\n<p>Living in a college-centric community has tremendous and sometimes not-so-great dimensions. In response to the complaints of home-owners living in single-family residences in the TCU neighborhoods, the City of Fort Worth passed a particular zoning restriction known as the TCU Overlay to limit the growth of \u201cstealth dorms\u201d where as many as five or more unrelated people live in a single-family home. The parties, traffic, and on-street parking had been taking a heavy toll on the campus&#8217;s charming neighborhoods.<\/p>\n<p>After much discussion, the city has established standards and requirements that anyone owning rental property in the overlay district must follow. The zoning overlay was locked in after a short period of exception requests. Exceptions were made to grandfather landlords already \u201crenting out rooms one at a time.\u201d Still, from now on, newly registered rental properties may have no more than three unrelated persons residing. Newly acquired rental property must promptly be re-registered with the city of Fort Worth by the owner. <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.fortworthtexas.gov\/overlay_registration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Here is a link to the city\u2019s registration portal.<\/a><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2415\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2415\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2415 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/rental-units-around-tcu-300x290.png\" alt=\"TCU Overlay Map\" width=\"300\" height=\"290\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/rental-units-around-tcu-300x290.png 300w, https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/rental-units-around-tcu.png 326w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2415\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">TCU Overlay Map<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Mostly, residents of the TCU neighborhoods like the proximity to the active campus, Amon G Carter Stadium, the University churches, and the student-oriented restaurants and bars. The Trustees have capped TCU\u2019s enrollment for the past three years, and the University has prioritized creating sufficient housing on campus to accommodate as many students as possible, including the construction of the new \u201cGreek Village\u201d in the North Hills area of the campus.<\/p>\n<p>Even with the overlay district, there will continue to be many rental properties throughout the TCU neighborhoods, as seen on the map here. Predictions are that with the direction of the campus leadership and the expected continuing growth of Fort Worth, many rental properties will be converted back to owner-occupied as prices continue to rise.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The neighborhoods around Texas Christian University (TCU) tend to be the most resilient and stable communities in Fort Worth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2413,"template":"","tags":[60],"class_list":["post-2412","neighborhood","type-neighborhood","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-neighborhoods"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/neighborhood\/2412","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/neighborhood"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/neighborhood"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2413"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2412"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.timdyoung.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2412"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
