Lay of Land Features

The Lay of Land in the Best-Southwest is just right. Offering a topographical paradise of beautiful hillsides, lush natural landscapes, and 7,500 acre Lake Joe Pool with an 1,800 acre Cedar Hill State Park and Marina, our area is affectionately referred to as Dallas’ Hill Country. The area consists of a generally stable geology. Where expansive soils exist, construction expertise is available to reinforce.

Established industrial areas (50+ acres):

  • In Cedar Hill Business, American, KCK and B and J Industrial parks
  • In DeSoto-Eagle Industrial Park
  • In Duncanville-Big Stone Gap Industrial Park and Red Bird business district
  • In Lancaster-Longhorn and Cedar Valley Industrial Parks

The vast majority of developable land left in Dallas County is in the southern sector.
