| East Davis proper is set in
a traditional land planning style, featuring
large centrally located parks, several schools,
and easy access to two neighborhood shopping
malls. Homes in this part of town are
generally relatively affordable, as Davis homes
go. East Davis is a relatively old part of
town, and thus boasts mature trees and, in some
places, well-shaded streets. |

| Holmes
Junior High has served most
East and South Davis kids for years.
However, the summer 2004 completion of Harper
Junior High in Mace Ranch will surely reduce enrollment
pressure at Holmes. East Davis
also has two excellent elementary schools, Birch Lane
and Valley Oak. |

Kids
and adults alike enjoy spending the hot summer
afternoons at the Slide Hill Park public pool. |
