Little Forest Hills is a neighborhood in east Dallas. The area is east of Lakeland Dr, south of Garland Road and north and west of Casa Linda Estates. The area is very close to White Rock Lake and Casa Linda shopping Center
Currently Little Forest Hills is in the midst of an underground campaign to "Keep forest hills funky". The residents are attempting to form a loose historical society in order to prevent newly constructed homes from altering the character of the neighborhood as has happened in the "M Street" and the "L Street" areas.
The neighborhood is served by the Dallas Independent School District. Children in the neighborhood attend Alex Sanger Elementary School, W. H. Gaston Middle School, and Bryan Adams High School.[1]
The neighborhood was the setting for a 2007 documentary about urban sprawl entitled Subdivided: Isolation and Community in America. The movie, by Dean Terry, held up Little Forest Hills as an example of 'good' development. The documentary, critical of tear-down construction and master planned subdivisions, was featured on KERA and received critical acclaim from the Dallas Observer.[2]
