By Angela Heikkennen<\/strong><\/p>\n I grew up in Fort Worth, but have lived in different neighborhoods.\u00a0<\/p>\n I went to South Hills Elementary, W.P. McLean Middle School and R.L. Paschal High School. My parents were divorced so I moved from one parent to the other halfway through my freshman year of high school. I lived in Clifton, Texas, then went to Tarleton State University for a year before coming back to Fort Worth and pursuing cosmetology at Ogle Beauty School.<\/p>\n I got married, had kids and lived in the north Crowley area until 2007. The area just wasn\u2019t what it was when we first moved there, so I found a house in Arlington Heights \u2014 where I\u2019ve lived for about 15 years now. My daughter graduated from Arlington Heights High School.\u00a0<\/p>\n This has been the quietest neighborhood I\u2019ve ever lived in, and truly feel safest here. Day or night.\u00a0<\/p>\n Some of my favorite places are Curly\u2019s Frozen Custard \u2014 where my daughter had her first job. You also can\u2019t go wrong with Kincaid\u2019s Hamburgers.\u00a0<\/p>\n I love being five to seven minutes from four great museums. I\u2019m also close to downtown, 7th Street, Near Southside and The Shops at Clearfork. I feel like this area is central to Fort Worth and the social things I do.<\/p>\n I love the boutique shops up and down Camp Bowie Boulevard. There\u2019s lots of great walking areas and beautiful parks in the neighborhood.\u00a0<\/p>\n My son and daughter have given me three beautiful grandkids with one on the way. This is an easy neighborhood to find lots of things to do with the kiddos.<\/p>\n Angela Heikkennen is a Fort Worth hairstylist.\u00a0<\/p>\n \nArlington Heights\n<\/p>\n Total population<\/strong>: 2,430 Age<\/strong> 10-19: 4%<\/p>\n 20-29: 6%<\/p>\n 30-39: 15%<\/p>\n 40-49: 8%<\/p>\n 50-59: 15%<\/p>\n 60-69: 16%<\/p>\n 70-79: 21%<\/p>\n 80 and older: 8%<\/p>\n Education<\/strong><\/p>\n No degree: 5%<\/p>\n High school: 5%<\/p>\n Some college: 15%<\/p>\n Bachelor\u2019s degree: 52%<\/p>\n Post-graduate: 23%<\/p>\n Race<\/strong> Click on the link to view the schools\u2019 Texas Education Agency ratings:<\/p>\n Tarrant County JJAEP<\/a><\/p>\n Arlington Heights High School<\/a><\/p>\n Transition Center<\/a><\/p>\n Stripling Middle School<\/a><\/p>\n South Hi Mount Elementary<\/a><\/p>\n Como Success Academy<\/a><\/p>\n Burton Hill Elementary<\/a><\/p>\n
