About the Area
Living in Forney
Forney pairs genuine small-town Texas character with one of the shortest east-side commutes into Dallas, and it does it at a price point that is hard to match closer in. Known statewide as the Antique Capital of Texas, the city has kept its historic Main Street while adding modern master-planned neighborhoods, parks, and schools. For buyers who want space, value, and an easy drive, new homes in Forney, TX check a lot of boxes at once.
Getting Around
Forney sits in northwestern Kaufman County along US-80, a four-lane limited-access highway that runs straight into downtown Dallas roughly 20 miles west — about a 25-minute drive outside of rush hour. That direct shot is Forney's biggest practical advantage: from US-80 you connect to I-635 and I-30 to reach the rest of the metroplex and both airports, while Mesquite's big-box retail and Town East Mall are only a few exits away. The commute suits Dallas workers who want a real house and yard for less than they would pay to the north.
Schools in Forney
Forney ISD is a well-regarded, fast-growing district serving the city through campuses that include Forney High School and North Forney High School. It has earned solid state accountability marks — a B in recent academic ratings, with multiple campus distinctions — and an A for financial integrity from the TEA for years running, a sign of a district managing rapid growth responsibly. New schools keep opening as the community expands, keeping classrooms close to home.
Things to Do in Forney
The 170-acre Forney Community Park is the heart of local recreation, with more than 40 acres of hike-and-bike trails, a splash pad, sports fields, and the 5,000-seat Spellman Amphitheater, which hosts concerts and a summer movie series. Downtown Forney lives up to its antique-capital name with boutiques, antique stores, and cafes, plus local favorites like 4-T's, a Texas Monthly-recognized barbecue spot. The calendar stays busy year-round with Festival on Main, the Brews on Bois D'Arc beer festival, and Monsters on Main each fall.
New Homes in Forney
Forney is regularly cited as one of Dallas's most affordable suburbs, and that value is the story here: new construction starting well below what similar homes command in the northern metro, with plenty of room to grow into as the city expands. The vibe stays neighborly and unhurried, anchored by that historic downtown and a steady stream of community events. A brand-new UnionMain home in Forney is a chance to buy into an established, rising town while it is still one of the metroplex's best values.
