Far North Dallas is typically defined as the area north of Interstate 635 (LBJ Freeway), east of Marsh Lane, south of Plano and west of Coit Road or Richardson. The area is very diverse and includes the area known as Addison, best known for all of its restaurants and its entertainment district, particularly Addison Circle and its outdoor entertainment from music festivals to art fairs. Far North Dallas real estate is also home to the Galleria Mall and the nearby Valley View Mall.
