The Keller market specifically
Keller's senior housing supply has been racing to catch up with a generation of residents who moved in decades ago as young families and are now aging in place rather than relocating.
Families in Keller frequently end up comparing against Southlake and North Richland Hills communities as well, since all three sit within a short drive of one another in northeast Tarrant County.
