Neighborhood

The hustle and bustle of some neighborhoods may remind you of a three-ring circus. Bailey’s Crossroads, however, is quite chill and distinguishable from others with its laid-back attitude and circus background, ironically.

The land at the “crossroads” of Route 7 and Route 244 was once the winter home of Hachaliah Bailey, a pioneer of circus showmen. Many restaurants, shopping centers, and green spaces can be found in the community today.

Crossroads Center is a popular mall at that, encompassed by trendy stores and eateries like La Madeline French Bakery. Around the corner from Bailey’s Crossroads apartments, stores such as Trader Joe’s and pet supply shops flourish. Lillian Care Park offers locals substantial walking trails and sports facilities on the southwest side of town.

In addition to a quiet community, residents appreciate the close access to Interstate 395, Ronald Regan International Airport, and Downtown Arlington.
