North Dallas

Pardon another location rant but what area is this exactly? Some use it to describe hi5. Some galleria. Some love field.

Carrollton, McKinney, uptown just to start

North of Mockingbird would be my definition.

In the Northern Section of Dallas.

North of SMU. East of Carrollton. West of Garland. South of Plano. With Richardson and Addison mixed in the middle.

In relation to the hobby...Galleria to Frankford and DNT

North Dallas is Considered to be anything north of Northwest Highway.

North Dallas High School is in Oaklawn.

NDHS was built in 1922, when Dallas ended at Mockingbird. Present-day North Dallas is generally considered the area North of NW Hwy, which wasn't built until the '30s. Many people include suburban cities. In about 10 years, that will extend to Texoma.
Next stop on the Urban Sprawl, OKC.

The various answers here explain/demonstrate why there is confusion...

Keep in mind, there is a difference which some posters fail to make when referencing the location they have in mind -- between "North Dallas" and "FAR North Dallas". That latter, might be deemed part of "North Dallas" --- which would be such a large area as to not be too helpful in locating the proximity of a business (or a provider). "FAR North Dallas" has as its general boundaries : the DNT - GBTP - Coit - I635 -- and proximate neighborhoods which fall within the municipal borders of the city of Dallas.

Basically, the 635 marks the boundary between "North" and "Far North" Dallas.

Thanks for the responses. Clearly I'm not in this alone. What can we do to stop this madness?

Can I see a show of hands of those born in Big D? Right here baby...I grew up off of Forest Lane and Midway (when Forest was a drag strip...which nowadays means something entirely different) and North of 635 was the Frontier
