Mesquite


Mesquite brings big Texas fun to Dallas's east side. This is the proud home of the Mesquite Championship Rodeo, where summer nights roar with bull riders and barrel racers. Shop and play at the massive Town East Mall, then let loose at Celebration Station's go-karts and arcades. Cajun feasts at Razzoo's and down-home comfort at Cracker Barrel keep tables full. Spacious, wallet-friendly apartments and solid Mesquite ISD schools make it a family favorite. I-635, I-30, and US-80 put downtown Dallas and the eastern suburbs minutes away. For renters who want more space, more value, and a whole lot of Texas charm, Mesquite delivers.

Honest Trade-offs

Know before you sign

Space for the money and quiet streets are the deal here — the trade is that most errands and nights out mean driving. Know which trade you want before you tour.
