Stop-Six is a thriving African American community made up of multi-generational young professionals and retirees. Stop-Six is known for its friendliness where neighbors still greet each other in passing. 

The mega-block bounded by East Berry Street, Stulcup Street and Highway 180 is known to be one of the most stable neighborhoods in Fort Worth. This is the section of the city where many affluent African American professionals, politicians and business leaders have lived for generations. This neighborhood has some of the newest HUD homes as well as an upper-middle-class sub-division just being developed at the corner of Ramey Avenue and 820. 

Stop-Six neighborhood is also home to one of the oldest high schools in the state of Texas, Dunbar High School, with its several National and State championships in academics, sports, and athletics. The celebrated National Basketball Winnest Coach in Highschools, Mr. Robert Hughes, not only belongs to this school, but also is a member of the congregation of St Simon’s Parish for over thirty years. 

John Peter Smith Clinic, Rising Star Elementary School, Bank One, Ramey Supermarket, and Blanch Child Care Center are only a few of the schools and businesses located one or two blocks from St Simon’s church.

St Simon’s Church can easily be reached from Interstate 20, 30, 820, and 287.
