SOHIP is where first-time homeowners, young professionals, and empty-nesters merge, just steps from the city’s energy—but with a neighborly feel all its own.
SOHIP (South of Highland Park) is a neighborhood organization dedicated to community connection, safety, and livability. We bring neighbors together for social events, share important community updates, and work closely with city partners to protect and enhance our quality of life.
Whether it’s advocating for smart development, organizing a block party, or celebrating with an ice cream cone, SOHIP is here for the people who call our neighborhood home.
— Where if you arrive without a dog, we’ll find one for you.
We’re an active, tight-knit community of more than 6,000 residents who value smart development, safe streets, and the unique character that makes our neighborhood livable and loved.
We actively participate in local planning and work with city partners to represent the interests and well-being of our residents.
Our name pays tribute to our location—South of Highland Park—but it’s more than a geographic nod. It reflects the community’s spirit: bold, welcoming, and full of life.
Bordering the southern streets of Highland Park, SOHIP is a historic and vibrant neighborhood within Dallas’ Oak Lawn Special Purpose District zoning district—better known as the 'PD 193'.
We prioritize community connection, responsible development, and open communication to ensure our neighborhood thrives.
If you're concerned about overdevelopment in SOHOP, you're not alone!
In response to the proposed 28-story high-rise apartment project at 4211 Newton Avenue, we have formed a Zoning Committee. This committee aims to collaborate with developers and city representatives to promote smart development in SOHOP.
