Extremely gorgeous and very developed neighborhood. Reminds me of Beverly hills to be exact. Lots of boutique shopping and lots and lots of fun activities. Lovely parks and lake as well as a stunning golf club.

Most of the people here are nice. Not everyone who lives in Highland Park goes to the public schools in Highland Park ISD. Class sizes are big. Being a current student in the Highland Park School district, my average class size is around 30 kids.

Highland Park is a very safe place. It's parks are well maintained and the shopping at Highland Park Village is great! Highland Park police keep it a very safe neighborhood. It is very pretentious with large homes though.
