Hive offers Apartments Near Forest Meadow Junior High School from its address at 6003 Abrams Rd, Dallas, TX 75231. Forest Meadow Junior High School is a Richardson ISD public campus in the Lake Highlands area of Dallas, so renters who are comparing this location should pay attention to both drive time and school-assignment rules. Proximity to a campus does not guarantee zoning, and school boundaries can change, so confirm your specific address with the district before you apply.
For many renters, being near Forest Meadow matters because the school sits within the daily traffic pattern of northeast Dallas, where school drop-off, after-school activities, errands, and work commutes often overlap. The practical question is not just “how close is it,” but whether the route works with your schedule, especially during morning and afternoon school traffic. From Hive, residents are positioned on Abrams Road with access toward Northwest Highway, Skillman Street, Greenville Avenue, Walnut Hill Lane, and other major local corridors used to move between Lake Highlands, White Rock, NorthPark, and central Dallas.
When someone asks me about school access from the community, I always recommend testing the commute at the actual time you expect to travel. A midday map check can look very different from a weekday morning during the school year. If Forest Meadow is part of your decision, also check pickup and drop-off procedures with the school, because campus traffic patterns can affect the last few minutes of any route more than the broader road network does.
Hive’s floor plans are straightforward for renters who want options without sorting through an oversized menu. The community offers studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, with listed layouts ranging from the 400-square-foot E1 studio to the 950-square-foot B2 two-bedroom, two-bath home. There is also a 700-square-foot A1 one-bedroom and a 770-square-foot B1 two-bedroom, one-bath layout, and current pricing, lease terms, and availability are best confirmed directly with the leasing office.
The apartment features that tend to matter for school-year routines are the practical ones: full-size washer and dryer connections, spacious closets, linen closets, electric appliances, kitchen pantries, cable-ready rooms, mini blinds, and private patios. Select homes may include wood-burning fireplaces or pool views, so ask the office which features are included in the specific apartment you are considering.
The community amenities are useful if you want more than just an apartment floor plan. Hive includes a business center, fitness center, swimming pool, outdoor basketball court, playground, children’s activity center, picnic area, clothes care center, professionally landscaped grounds, and 24-hour emergency maintenance. The community also notes nearby public transportation access and easy access to Northwest Highway, which can help if your household uses a mix of driving, rideshare, and transit.
One honest trade-off: this is an urban Dallas setting along active roads, not a quiet, tucked-away suburban school-adjacent property. If your top priority is walking distance to Forest Meadow Junior High or a confirmed Richardson ISD assignment, you should verify both the route and the school boundary before choosing any apartment, including Hive.
If Hive looks like a workable fit for your school commute and daily routine, contact the leasing office or schedule a tour to review current floor plan availability, confirm apartment features, and compare the route to Forest Meadow Junior High School at the times you would actually travel.
