HANA is a coalition of residential neighborhoods located just south of downtown Arlington, Texas. We are not a homeowners association, but a diverse community that includes some of Arlington’s oldest residential areas, featuring a variety of housing styles.
HANA encompasses neighborhoods between Cooper, Border, Collins, and Pioneer, with recent additions around Mitchell and Collins.
All HANA neighborhoods are affected by our proximity to downtown Arlington and the University of Texas at Arlington, both of which continue to undergo fundamental changes. Johnson Creek runs through the middle of HANA and represents significant opportunities and challenges not just for our residents, but for our entire city.
Important roles for HANA include facilitating communication and addressing concerns impacting central Arlington. We do this by:
HANA’s members are neighbors who voluntarily join to preserve and enhance our quality of life. We are nonprofit and nonsectarian. Annual membership dues are $10 per person, and membership is required to vote and sit on our board. Dues and donations are tax-deductible. However, since one of our goals is to communicate with residents on matters of mutual interest, membership is not required to attend our meetings or events. All residents are welcome.
And a word about your $10 annual membership dues: Where does that money go, since nobody is on the payroll? That money goes towards administrative costs such as our PO Box, website, and printing. Our meeting sites, which range from properties owned by other non-profits to private businesses like restaurants, don't charge us rent. Nevertheless, we usually donate an honorarium to non-profits which are frequent hosts to help them cover their own facility expenses. Then there's our biggest annual expenditure, Neighborhood Night Out. Although we partner with other organizations to sponsor it every year, and volunteers do all the cooking, somebody has to pay for all the food and supplies we use. So if you add it all up, your $10 dues each year represent a considerable bargain!
