Quail Run: Everyday Convenience with Allen ISD at Your Doorstep
About Quail Run
Quail Run feels like the part of Allen where errands, school drop-off, and a coffee run can all happen without turning the day into a trek across town. Within minutes you’ve got practical anchors like Walmart Supercenter nearby, plus easy pick-me-ups at Feng Cha Allen close to home. When you want something bigger than a quick stop, the area around Allen Event Center and Allen Eagle Stadium gives the neighborhood a distinctly “Allen” rhythm—especially on game nights when the whole side of town seems to be heading the same direction.
The neighborhood sits in the 75013 ZIP, where the median home value is $590,700, and that price point shows up in the day-to-day expectations here: well-kept streets, neighbors who are invested, and a strong school-forward culture. In this pocket of Allen, Allen ISD isn’t an abstract selling point—it’s the actual backdrop of family schedules and community identity, with A-rated campuses like Beverly Cheatham EL just 0.6 miles away and Allen H S about 1.3 miles out.
Quail Run also reflects the broader 75013 mix of households and backgrounds, which gives it a modern North Texas feel rather than a single-note suburb. The ZIP’s median household income of $146,891 supports a lifestyle where people prioritize time and convenience—whether that’s fitting in a morning workout run before work or doing a quick grocery sweep at Whole Foods Market, Sprouts Farmers Market, or H-E-B, all clustered roughly a short drive away.
What stands out is how naturally Quail Run ties into the bigger map of Allen without losing a neighborhood feel. You’re close to Downtown Allen when you want a change of scenery, yet you’re also surrounded by residential areas like Waterford Parks, Shaddock Park, and The Landings that reinforce the sense that this is a settled, established side of town.
You’ll see Quail Run draw households who want Allen ISD access, a strong owner-occupied foundation, and a location where a Friday night can mean The Common Table, while Saturday morning is coffee at Talia’s Cafe and a library run to Allen Public Library—without planning the whole day around traffic.

That density changes how people live: weeknight dinners are easier, last-minute school projects don’t create a crisis, and “we’re out of milk” is a five-minute problem instead of a full errand run.
Housing expectations in Quail Run align with the 75013 median home value of $590,700, and the neighborhood’s owner-occupied lean comes through in how residents treat upkeep and improvements.

Beverly Cheatham EL is close enough at 0.6 miles to feel like a true neighborhood school, and other A-rated Allen ISD options like Dr E T Boon EL, Jenny Preston EL, and Kerr EL sit roughly in the 1–2 mile range. High school life is a centerpiece too, with Allen H S about 1.3 miles away and Lowery Freshman Center around 1.7 miles, making sports seasons and campus events feel like community events rather than something happening across town.
Fitness and entertainment are woven into the same short drive pattern. A quick evening outing might be Topgolf at 1.1 miles, a class or workout at Life Time at 1.2 miles, or a stop at 24 Hour Fitness around 1.4 miles. On nights when the stadium lights are on, Allen Eagle Stadium at 1.3 miles and the Allen High School Track and Field Stadium at 1.5 miles create that unmistakable Friday-night-in-Texas vibe that’s hard to replicate elsewhere.
Work routines mirror the ZIP’s commuting habits, where 64.2% of residents drive alone and 28.5% work from home.
