What is your favorite aspect of Parkwood? Meaning either what drew you to the community and/or what has grown on you over the years -- the people, the common areas (pool, tennis courts, jogging/fitness trail), the neighborhood association, etc.?

Just an informal poll.

I have family in Parkwood that's been there for many years. We have family photos showing our house being built. Parkwood initially drew them because of its location (convenient to work & school) and the fitness/jogging trail. Previous neighborhoods they'd been in were short on common areas, and the trail was the one we kids (at the time) were most excited about.

Now, it's just a nice neighborhood -- mature trees in the yards, a variety of people and age ranges, wide streets and hence a wide open feel. Plenty of room to walk, bicycle, jog, play tennis and swim. Relatively quiet and secure despite usual issues any large subdivision will have over time.

So, what are your favorite things about Parkwood?

We like the quiet, most of the yards and homes are fairly well kept. The trees are getting pretty (we've been here since '90). The location is great and getting better with the shopping center, movie and restaurants at l604 & Bandera, and the new mall being built.
