Silverado

What Silverado feels like.

Silverado is Aubrey's straightforward answer to a straightforward question: where can a household still buy a new home in DFW without the payment swallowing the rest of life? The community sits off the Dallas North Tollway extension, which means the value proposition comes with a real commute story attached. Streets fill with strollers and pickup trucks in roughly equal measure, and neighbors tend to be at the same stage of building a life.

Daily rhythms here are simple in the best way. Legacy West in Plano is about 27 minutes down the tollway for the office crowd, DFW Airport about 38 for the road warriors, and the rest of Aubrey — Friday-night football, feed stores, the old downtown grid — is minutes in the other direction. Silverado buyers aren't paying for a lagoon; they're paying for a front door in North Texas's growth path, and that math keeps working.

What homes look like here.

The housing stock is newer single-family construction built for efficiency: open-concept main floors, upstairs game rooms on the two-story plans, and brick-front elevations that keep maintenance sane. Lots run compact, which trades yard work for weekend hours — a fair swap for plenty of buyers. Silverado suits first-time purchasers stretching into ownership, young families who want new systems and warranties instead of renovation projects, and investors watching the DNT extension pull value northward. If your priority list reads square footage, commute, and a garage that fits the truck, this corner of Aubrey deserves a tour.

The case for Silverado.

Is Silverado a good place to live?

For buyers prioritizing value and commute, it's one of Aubrey's most sensible picks. Silverado trades resort amenities for attainability, and the neighborhood energy comes from young households all getting started at once. You're close to the tollway when you need the metroplex and close to small-town Aubrey when you don't.

Are there new construction homes in Silverado?

Silverado grew up as a new-construction community, so much of the housing stock is recent, and availability shifts between newly built homes and early resales as the neighborhood matures. Check current listings for both — a lightly lived-in resale here can compete well against a brand-new build once you factor in blinds, sod, and a finished backyard.

What school district serves Silverado?

Silverado is served by Aubrey ISD, the district that anchors this side of Denton County. Families weighing the move should confirm current campus assignments directly with the district, since attendance zones in fast-growing corridors get redrawn as new schools open.

How far is Silverado from downtown Dallas or Fort Worth?

Downtown Dallas runs about 48 minutes and downtown Fort Worth about 58, so this is genuinely northern DFW. The everyday drives are shorter: about 27 minutes to Legacy West in Plano and about 38 to DFW Airport, with the Dallas North Tollway extension doing most of the heavy lifting.
