# Midlothian Apartment Locator: US-67 Complexes and Rental Home Subdivisions

Midlothian sits where US-67 meets US-287 in Ellis County, about 25 miles southwest of Downtown Dallas. Newer garden complexes line US-67 and the planned MidTowne area, and communities of houses built to rent fill recent subdivisions. The cement plants and steel mill on the edges of town are big employers, and their noise and dust reach some blocks more than others.

## Midlothian rents this week

We check these numbers every week. Updated November 6, 2026. Where a place has a firm move-in special, its rent counts the free rent spread evenly over the lease. Rents are before fees. 6 communities in and within 7.5 miles of Midlothian had homes available; 3 listed a move-in special. Method: https://apartmentlocatordallas.com/rent-data-methodology/

Our read this week: 2 buildings here are brand new or still opening, and 1 of them has a move-in special right now. New buildings have to fill up fast, so they usually give the biggest deals. The typical 2 bedroom went up $30 since November 1.

## Areas we cover inside Midlothian

- **Historic Downtown Midlothian**: Midlothian's old downtown is a small grid of brick storefronts and older houses near the rail lines the town grew up around. Rentals are mostly older homes and duplexes, and US-67 and US-287 are a few minutes away.
- **MidTowne**: MidTowne is a planned neighborhood on the south side of downtown, with newer houses and townhomes. Rentals are mostly newer homes and townhomes, and the old downtown is a short drive north.
- **US-67 Corridor**: US-67 runs through north Midlothian toward Cedar Hill and Dallas. Most of the town's apartment complexes and newer shopping have gone up near its exits. Downtown Dallas is roughly 25 miles up the highway.
- **South Midlothian**: South Midlothian stretches toward the US-287 bypass, with newer subdivisions, homes built to rent and cement plants on the outskirts. US-287 is the route to Waxahachie one way and Mansfield the other.
- **West Midlothian**: West of town the land opens up, with houses on big lots, new subdivisions and the cement plants Midlothian is known for. Rentals out here are mostly houses, and US-287 heads northwest toward Mansfield and Fort Worth.

## Midlothian Apartments Along US-67, Away From Plant Dust

- We point out which homes sit closest to the plants, so you know where to visit on a weekday
- We ask about gate access at all hours and lot lighting for anyone working plant shifts
- Houses built to rent in the newer subdivisions when you want three bedrooms or a garage
- We look up Midlothian ISD or Waxahachie ISD for the exact address

## US-67 North, Joe Pool Lake, and Getting Around

Most rentals sit along US-67, the commute route north through Cedar Hill and Duncanville to I-20 and Dallas. Downtown is about half an hour away with clear roads and longer at rush hour, so drive it from the exact address at the hour you'd leave. US-287 runs northwest toward Mansfield and Fort Worth and southeast to Waxahachie.

There's no DART, rail or regular bus, so plan on a car. Joe Pool Lake, the nearest big recreation spot, is north of town through Cedar Hill.

When the plants are running, noise and dust reach certain blocks. A Sunday visit won't show you what a Tuesday morning sounds like, so go on a weekday. If you work a plant shift, ask whether the gate opens at all hours and how well the lot is lit.

## Garden Apartments, Houses Built to Rent, and Older Buildings

Rentals here run newer and more formal than in the smaller towns to the south. The garden complexes along US-67 and around MidTowne screen by published rules, and buildings still filling up sometimes offer free weeks. Work out the monthly price before you compare.

Newer subdivisions have whole streets of homes built to rent. They're a good fit for three bedrooms or a garage, and they screen by the same posted rules.

Older buildings are scarce and mostly near the small historic downtown, so an owner who'll make an exception is harder to find here than in Waxahachie or DeSoto. With a complicated credit history, we'll look for the newer buildings that say yes with conditions, such as a larger deposit.

## Life in Midlothian

Midlothian is a growing town in Ellis County where US-67 and US-287 meet. The old downtown has a short strip of restaurants, and the city's parks are the weekend draw.

### US-67 and US-287

US-67 is the road to Dallas, and US-287 heads northwest to Fort Worth and southeast to Waxahachie. At 8am, Downtown Dallas is about 32 minutes away, the Medical District 38, DFW Airport 42 and Legacy West 55. There's no train here, so plan on driving every day.

- **U.S. Route 67** (highway): Your road north into Dallas; leave early, since the morning drive slows as you get closer in.

### Splash pad, dog park and nature trails

Midlothian Community Park, a few miles from downtown, is the big park, with a splash pad. Mockingbird Nature Park has trails through open prairie, a short drive out. The Midlothian Dog Park sits about a mile from downtown, and Kimmel Park is close in for a quick walk.

- **Midlothian Community Park** (park): Beat the heat at the splash pad on a summer afternoon, and check the city's page for hours first.
- **Mockingbird Nature Park** (nature preserve): Walk the trails early on a spring morning, before the heat sets in.
- **Midlothian Dog Park** (dog park): Let your dog run after work, and bring water in the summer.

### Tex Mex and wings near downtown

Most of Midlothian's dinner spots sit downtown or close to it. Tio Tony's Mexican Restaurant is the busy Tex Mex stop near the old center. Jalapenos Lemon Pepper, on George Hopper Road a short drive away, handles wings and Tex Mex. Small bars and patios fill in the downtown blocks.

- **Tio Tony's Mexican Restaurant** (Tex Mex): Go for an easy weeknight dinner of enchiladas, and expect a wait on Friday nights.
- **Jalapenos Lemon Pepper** (wings): Pick up wings and Tex Mex plates for a game night at home, a short drive from downtown.

### MidloFest and free shows

MidloFest is the town's big street festival downtown each spring, with free entry. The parks department puts on free movies and concerts in the parks. Most other weekends mean a drive to Dallas or Fort Worth for a game or a show.

- **Historic Downtown Midlothian** (downtown): Come out for MidloFest in the spring, and walk to dinner on the old blocks the rest of the year.

### What we tell renters about Midlothian

Every commute here is a drive, and Legacy West is close to an hour away at 8am, so pick a home on the side of town you'll head toward. Check the city's page before you go to the splash pad. Festival days fill the downtown parking.
