Richardson's residential boom started in the 1950s when Texas Instruments built its headquarters here, drawing engineers and their families to brand-new neighborhoods along Central Expressway. Those original mid-century bungalows in Heights Park and Clear Spring Place still stand today, with their low rooflines, large front windows, and decorative iron detailing. By the 1960s, spacious ranch homes filled Canyon Creek and the neighborhoods along Arapaho Road.
Homes from the 1970s and 1980s in Prairie Creek, Greenwood Hills, and University Estates introduced different floor plans and building methods, but they share the same North Texas challenges. Foundation movement from clay soil causes drywall cracks, sticking doors, and uneven floors across every era of Richardson housing. Original plumbing, electrical panels, and fixtures from these decades are well past their expected lifespan in many homes.
