Second Chance Apartment Options in Kennedale, TX

Dallas Second Chance Apartments helps renters seeking housing in Kennedale find approved options in this small Tarrant County community between Arlington and Mansfield - 100% free. Backed by 20+ years of combined DFW experience and a locator database of 3,000+ apartment communities, we pre-verify each property's screening criteria before you apply.

Kennedale sits along US-287 between Arlington to the north and Mansfield to the south, covering roughly 5 square miles in southwestern Tarrant County. The apartment inventory is among the most limited in the DFW Metroplex - rental units concentrate along the US-287 Corridor and the Town Center area near Kennedale Speedway Park and Town Center Park, where a modest supply of garden-style apartments, townhomes, and smaller multi-family complexes draws renters employed in manufacturing, distribution, and service-sector roles along the US-287 and I-20 employment belt. Residential pockets in Falcon Wood Estates and South Kennedale near Tierra Verde Golf Club are primarily single-family, so renters in those areas typically look toward the US-287 corridor for available units. Because the pool of rental communities is genuinely small, knowing exactly which properties will work with your credit, eviction, or background record before you submit a non-refundable application fee matters more than in larger markets.

When the local inventory does not produce a strong match, we draw on our Arlington, Mansfield, and Grand Prairie coverage to build a custom list that keeps you as geographically close to this corridor as your approval profile allows. Loop 820 connects Kennedale to southeast Fort Worth in minutes, opening additional apartment communities for renters who need to stay near the Kennedale Public Library or local schools. The Dallas Second Chance Apartments team contacts property managers directly, confirms each community's actual 2026 screening criteria, and delivers a list where your specific profile - credit flag, eviction, or background record - has a real shot at approval without a wasted application fee.
