Glenn Heights straddles the Dallas and Ellis county line west of I-35E, roughly sixteen miles south of downtown Dallas, with the northern half of the city in Dallas County and the southern half in Ellis County. That line matters for taxes and paperwork, since the Dallas County portion falls in DeSoto ISD and the Ellis County portion in Red Oak ISD. The area was largely farmland until the 1980s, and the housing stock is dominated by subdivisions built from the 1990s onward.
Glenn Heights sits in Dallas County, where the combined property tax rate runs about 2.15 percent of market value for the 2025 tax year, ranging 1.95 to 2.60 percent depending on the school district. On a $350,000 home with a homestead exemption that works out to roughly $505 a month. The Texas homestead exemption reduces only the school district portion, not the county or city portion, which is the detail most online estimates miss.
Taxes and insurance are a large share of a monthly payment in Texas, so a national mortgage estimate will understate what a Glenn Heights home actually costs to hold.
