Keller TX rental homes

Just 20 miles north of the thriving metropolis of Fort Worth, Texas, sits the small city of Roanoke, which, despite its size, has made a reputation as a cultural haven and drawn many newcomers to its homes for rent. With just under 8, 000 residents, Roanoke provides a very peaceful setting and intimate community, and just a short commute from the excitement and cultural resources of Dallas and Fort Worth.

One of the more popular areas in Fort Worth, Roanoke invites newcomers with its historic charm, abundant events and festivals, and the restaurants that have led to its nickname: "The Dining Capital of Texas."

Fun Things for Roanoke Renters to Do

Houses for rent in Roanoke place renters in a community with more than 40 restaurants, live music venues and an assortment of shops. On Oak Street, residents can find the majority of the city's popular restaurants - Babe's Chicken is a particular jewel - as well as the old hotel where the bank robbers Bonnie and Clyde resided in the 1930s. The city's culinary streak continues to grow, with new eateries constantly opening.

Community Living for Roanoke Renters

Roanoke rentals help newcomers become part of the community through their participation in many civic events.

These events take place in Roanoke's historic downtown, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
