Living in Arcola, TX

Those who have lived in Houston apartments are probably reluctant to leave the area. It's easy to quickly populate of list of favorite spots in the city, from breakfast diners to BBQ joints, concert halls to live theaters, and quite parks to bumping nightclubs. Indeed, many young professionals and new families begin to identify with the assortment of community events and entertainment options that Houston offers. But eventually, some find that its time to settle down just a bit and move to one of the quieter communities around Houston. While the relocation may represent a settling down of sorts, it doesn't put the favorite spots of Houston completely out of reach. In fact, those who rent apartments in Arcola, Texas, live by the town's slogan: "Good Life Close to the Big City."

For residents in Arcola apartments, the "good life," consists of being part of a closely knit community that aims to grow closer through a list of events that take place throughout the year. Beginning in January, locals are invited to leave their Arcola apartments for the January Prayer Breakfast with local ministers and elected officials. Come February, vendors set up shop downtown for the Sugar & Spice Market.

When the weather gets a bit warmer, it's time to put the top down and head to the Antiques & Car Show, which takes place each April. Soon after, those in Arcola apartments crowd the sidewalks for May's Cinco de Mayo parade and concert. The celebrations continue through the year with observances of Graduation, Labor Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas.

What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Arcola

The thing I like most about my neighborhood is that we are in the country (Rural) it takes 15 minutes to get to the closest grocery store and I wouldn't change it

It's in the country and we live on a dead end road so it's one way in and one way out and we have very big spacious yards. It's in the country but it's just 5 to 10 minutes away from all kinds of restaurants gas stations and stores. We like to go to the Cajun restaurant in town with family and friends.

I like going shopping with my friends. Also I'm friends with the people who work in dollar general so I like going to dollar general.

It is a wonderful place to spend time outdoors. We know and love our neighbors. We spend time outside with them and hang out with them on holidays.

I love going to the park and the pool with my friends there not really nothing special in my neighborhood except for the parks and pools and basketball court

Kroger is up the street and we're not to far from restaurants and stores. Can get coffee, items for a dollar, and food,
