Ridglea Hills is an addition of couse located in some "hills". The "hills" are not really much to talk about and are not hills as most folks would think of. However, in Fort Worth we call them "hills". The area is several miles West of Downtown Fort Worth just South of Camp Bowie. Most of the homes in the area were built in the 1950's. The area has 2 small lakes with homes built around them and nice mature trees. The neighborhood is a nice place to walk but walking is limited to the street since there are no sidewalks. The area offers easy access to I-20 and I-30 and it is only minutes to two large Malls. 02/11/2007

When I was growing up in Fort Worth downtown was the center of everything. All the shopping, all the large theaters and all the businesses were located downtown.
