    Race To These Residences

    Affordable price belies the awesome amenities at these Dallas condos

    Dallas, this is the latest in urban living: The Shelby Residences has just emerged from a complete renovation, resulting in 55 contemporary residences offering the best in urban, modern homeownership in the vibrant and up-and-coming University Crossing neighborhood.

    Owners at The Shelby Residences take advantage of its location, which is just moments from downtown, Mockingbird Station, Lower Greenville, and the SMU campus. In the mood for a burger? Walk downstairs to Twisted Root Burger Co. Other dining options just steps away include Torchy’s Tacos, Bahn Shop, Nodding Donkey, and Barley House.

    Fitness addicts can get their fix at Crossfit Dallas Central or CorePower Yoga, both within walking distance. Essential beauty services are just as convenient: Less than a half-mile down the road are Castle Nail Spa for regular mani/pedis and Pouf for makeup applications or blowouts.

    The University Crossing neighborhood is so hot, in fact, that there are plans for a pedestrian bridge across Mockingbird Lane and an extension of the Katy Trail through the area. Construction of the bridge starts in October and is expected to wrap up in early 2017. This only scratches the surface of the millions of dollars being poured into this vibrant community.

    As for the property itself, amenities abound, even before you set foot inside your condo. The Shelby Residences is flush with fresh, contemporary art, and owners can take advantage of a new Owners’ Lounge and the lush rooftop terrace with fire pits, comfy seats, gas grills, and dining spaces. The condo complex also features a fitness center and a “barking lot” to accommodate friends of the four-legged variety.

    Once inside, it’s easy to see that The Shelby Residences are at the forefront of design trends, with Puccini porcelain wood flooring, quartz countertops, and stainless appliances. Properties also include ensuite laundry, walk-in closets, views of downtown, and lots of added storage space.

    Perhaps the best part of owning a condo at The Shelby Residences, however, is the price: One- and two-bedroom homes currently start in the low $200,000s.

    “With the open concept interior layouts and breathtaking views of downtown Dallas and the beautiful SMU campus, you will be hard pressed to find a like-new building in this area at this price point,” says Brent Halvorson, vice president of the Marquis Group, which owns The Shelby Residences. “We feel that it is a great option for Dallas professionals, SMU graduate students, SMU alumni, and faculty ready to own.”

    Stop by The Shelby Residences’ open house on Wednesday, September 16, to see it all for yourself. To get more information, visit the website or call one of the sales specialists at 817-733-4869.

    The 55 units at The Shelby Residences start in the low $200,000s.

    hottest zips

    Surprising Dallas neighbor ranks among hottest ZIP codes in U.S.

    Lavon, Texas
    City of Lavon/Facebook
    Movers are loving Lavon for its small-town feel and proximity to the big city.

    A recent analysis of American relocation trends has revealed the small city of Lavon outside Dallas was one of the top five hottest ZIP code for movers nationwide in October 2025.

    Lavon's 75166 ZIP code ranked No. 5 on MovingPlace's new list ranking the U.S. cities with the highest number of new movers per 1,000 current residents during the month of October.

    According to the study's data, 961,650 moves took place across the nation last month. Lavon (population: 13,800) saw 10.8 moves per 1,000 residents in October, the fifth highest moving rate out of all U.S. cities.

    Lavon is located 32 miles northeast of Dallas in Collin County. It was praised as a highly sought-after locale for movers who want to live somewhere affordable outside Dallas while still reaping the benefits from a community with a small-town feel.

    The report also added that Lavon's 75166 ZIP was the No. 1 hottest ZIP code in September, but relocations dipped 7.7 percent from September to October.

    "When looking at the top ZIP codes in each state, it’s clear that less populated ZIP codes often show dramatic month-over-month increases, sometimes exceeding 100 percent," the report said. "Larger cities, by contrast, maintain consistently high move volumes without extreme spikes, because their larger populations dampen the impact of individual moves."

    These are the top 10 hottest U.S. ZIP codes based on moves per capita in October:

    • No. 1 – 78616 in Dale, Texas
    • No. 2 – 34987 in Port Saint Lucie, Florida
    • No. 3 – 37228 in Nashville, Tennessee
    • No. 4 – 80019 in Aurora, Colorado
    • No. 5 – 75166 in Lavon, Texas
    • No. 6 – 32461 in Inlet Beach, Florida
    • No. 7 – 10004 in New York, New York
    • No. 8 – 43137 in Lockbourne, Ohio
    • No. 9 – 30346 in Atlanta, Georgia
    • No. 10 – 78656 in Maxwell, Texas

    The hottest U.S. ZIP codes by total move volume
    Five Texas ZIPs ranked among MovingPlace's separate analysis of the top 10 hottest U.S. ZIP codes based on total move volume.

    McKinney's ever-popular 75071 ZIP code ranked No. 5 on the list after gaining 298 new residents last month, only 72 residents shy from No. 1-ranking Washington, D.C.'s new resident count.

    This North Dallas suburb also previously ranked as the No. 8 most popular ZIP for movers during the first five months of 2025.

    The report said McKinney's most attractive qualities are its safety, its high-performing schools, and its proximity to outdoor recreational activities. it also helps that the suburb consistently ranks as the No. 1 hottest housing market in America, and it frequently tops lists comparing the best cities for renters or the most affordable cities in the U.S.

    The top 10 hottest American ZIP codes in October based on total move volume were:

    • No. 1 – 20002 in Washington, D.C.
    • No. 2 – 78130 in New Braunfels, Texas
    • No. 3 – 78641 in Leander, Texas
    • No. 4 – 77433 in Cypress, Texas
    • No. 5 – 75071 in McKinney, Texas
    • No. 6 –32256 in Jacksonville, Florida
    • No. 7 –77493 in Katy, Texas
    • No. 8 – 85142 in Queen Creek, Arizona
    • No. 9 – 98052 in Redmond, Washington
    • No. 10 – 28269 in Charlotte, North Carolina
