Uptown Dallas — Neighborhood Guide
Uptown Dallas is the high-rise and apartment district just north of downtown, where you trade a yard for a Walk Score of 87 and McKinney Avenue's restaurants and bars at your door. Its two main ZIP codes are 75201, at the south end by Woodall Rodgers Freeway, and 75204, along McKinney Avenue and around Griggs Park. Housing runs from high-rise condos and newer apartment towers to renovated townhomes.
The neighborhood has its own public improvement district: the City of Dallas set up the Uptown PID in 1993, it covers about 2,181 properties, and Uptown Dallas Inc. manages it; its current term runs to the end of 2026. The free McKinney Avenue Trolley links the area to downtown and the Arts District, the 3.5-mile Katy Trail runs through it for walking and cycling, and West Village adds open-air shopping and dining.
