ARLINGTON HEIGHTS
99 homes closed in the twelve months to October 2026, at a median of $449,500 and 24 days on market.
Choice, by west-side standards
Written by Eric Duran — Founder and Realtor, The Fort Real Estate · Updated October 20, 2026
The short answer: 99 homes closed in Arlington Heights between September 2025 and September 2026 at a $449,500 median — 1,620 square feet, built around 1940, under contract in a median 24 days at 98% of list. The spread matters more than the median here: sales ran from just over $200,000 to $957,786, so what that number buys changes street to street. 33 homes are listed now, which is real choice by west-side standards.
Arlington Heights runs west from downtown Fort Worth along Camp Bowie Boulevard, north of I-30, in 76107. It’s one of the city’s oldest west-side neighborhoods, and the housing stock still shows it — most of it dates from the 1920s through the 1940s. Streets like Birchman, Calmont, El Campo, Pershing and Byers were platted long before the cul-de-sac, which is why the blocks are short, the sidewalks run continuous and the tree canopy is full grown.
Location is most of the argument. The Cultural District — the Kimbell, the Modern, the Amon Carter — is minutes away, along with Dickies Arena and the Will Rogers Memorial Center. Camp Bowie Boulevard, still brick through much of its length, carries most of the neighborhood’s restaurants and shops, and Central Market anchors the Chapel Hill Shopping Center at the western edge. Downtown is about ten minutes.
Arlington Heights is one of the more attainable established neighborhoods on this side of town — its median sale price runs roughly half that of Tanglewood or Overton Park, a few miles south, in housing of comparable age and character.
The number that matters most here isn’t the median, though. It’s the spread. Price per square foot varies by more than double across homes of similar age and size on the same streets. An original 1930s bungalow and one taken to the studs and rebuilt can sit across from each other and be worth very different money. That’s why an automated estimate is close to useless in Arlington Heights, and why the condition of the house in front of you matters more than the comp two doors down.
Inventory is also deeper here than in the 76109 neighborhoods — typically a few dozen homes on the market at any time, where Tanglewood or Colonial might have a handful. Homes that sell here sell quickly, but listings that sit tend to sit a while. What lingers in Arlington Heights is usually priced against a renovation it hasn’t had.

Working at one of the hospitals? Arlington Heights is an eight minute drive to Harris Methodist, or about 22 minutes by bike if you pick up the Trinity Trails near Mistletoe.

How long do homes take to sell in Arlington Heights?
As of September 2026, the median home went under contract in 24 days at 98% of list price. That describes homes that sold — listings still on the market had been available a median of 56 days, which usually reflects pricing rather than demand.
How many homes are for sale in Arlington Heights?
Typically a few dozen at any given time, which is considerably deeper inventory than Tanglewood or Colonial, where a handful of listings is normal. As of late September 2026, 33 homes were actively listed — roughly four months of supply at the current pace of sales.
How old are the homes in Arlington Heights?
Most of the housing stock dates from the 1920s through the 1940s, from Fort Worth’s early west-side expansion. There’s scattered new-construction infill as well, typically priced well above the neighborhood median.
Why does price per square foot vary so much in Arlington Heights?
Because condition varies more than location does. Two houses of the same age and size on the same block can differ by more than double depending on whether the home has been renovated, and how extensively. This is the single biggest reason automated valuation estimates are unreliable here.
