Continuing to Make Balch Springs Beautiful!

An emerging city of
nearly 20,000, overflowing with exciting developments and
improvements. Telecom industry hub, family entertainment venues
like Double D Ranch, soccer and baseball sports complexes and the
only Home Depot and Super Wal-Mart within the southeast Dallas area
north of I20, all located where 3 major freeways meet. I635, I20
and US175 criss-cross the city offering easy commutes to and from
Dallas and its surrounding cities. New subdivisions opened recently
and are located primarily within the award winning Mesquite ISD
Eastfield College, UNT at Dallas, SMU, and Paul Quinn are within a
30 minute drive. Quality of life and friendly neighborhood charm
can be found at the new community gardens and Organic Local Farmers'
Market, new City Library and Civic Center where residents gather for
annual seasonal festivals and the Dr. Larry T-Byrd Gordon Cultural
Arts Series. All in a growing, thriving place to live, work and
play!
