West University
Developed by former Tennessee Governor Ben Hooper in 1917 this neighborhood consists of two square miles that offers low-key but high-end living inside the 610 loop. West University got its name due to being just west of Rice University. The town has its own fire and police department, library and expansive park system that is second to none. Location makes it an ideal spot for living, working, and raising a family. You’ll find classic architecture with a heavy dose of charm, strong schools, and steady property values. This neighborhood appeals to families and young professionals alike. Swing by Rice Village for unique shopping or bites at one of the many restaurants and happy hour spots.
