Things for renting

Shopping in Lancaster, TX

Since Lancaster is such a small town constituted primarily of residential neighborhoods, there are few options for grocery stores within the city borders. However, you will find multiple options in other neighboring municipalities, either in other suburbs a few minutes away, like DeSoto, or in Dallas so you will never have any issues finding all the ingredients you need to cook in your apartment for rent. The main grocery store in Lancaster is Lancaster Supermarket. In addition, you will find a Walmart for larger errands and multiple convenience stores so your rental apartment will rarely be more than a few blocks away from your basic needs. Renters can also find stores to fulfill their demand for natural or Mexican produce.

Transportation in Lancaster, TX

Driving is a must when renting an apartment in Lancaster. Like many suburbs, the town is not walkable, and renters will need a vehicle to run most errands, therefore it is best to look for a rental with available parking. Lancaster is located between Interstates 35E and 45 and south of Interstate 20, which provides an easy commute to Dallas and other communities thanks to the dense network of freeways within the town. In addition, renters can still get access to public transportation since most live within a 15-minute drive of the Ledbetter Station on DART’s Blue Line and a bus route with 30-minute peak headways that connects Cedar Valley College to the Ledbetter Station. For air travel, Dallas Love Field airport is conveniently located just 23 miles directly north.
