Richmond is a practical option for apartments with fitness center near University of Texas at Dallas, with a 24/7 fitness center on site and an address at 19251 Preston Road in Dallas, TX 75252. UT Dallas is approximately 5 miles from the community, so residents can keep workouts close to home while staying within a reasonable drive of the Richardson campus. That matters most for people whose days do not follow a simple 9-to-5 schedule, including students, faculty, staff, researchers, and nearby professionals.
The University of Texas at Dallas is a public research university in Richardson, with its main campus along West Campbell Road near Waterview Parkway. Many renters looking near UTD care about more than mileage: they are often comparing commute routes, study space, parking, roommate-friendly layouts, and whether everyday errands can happen without crossing half of North Dallas.
From Richmond, most local trips center on Preston Road, with nearby access to major North Dallas routes such as President George Bush Turnpike and the Dallas North Tollway. Depending on where you are headed on campus, common approaches toward UTD include the Campbell Road, Coit Road, and Waterview Parkway area. Traffic can vary a lot around school start times, office commute windows, and weather, so it is wise to test the drive at the time of day you would actually travel.
The fitness center being open 24/7 is the main amenity for this search intent. If you like to work out before an early lab, after an evening class, or between work and study time, not having to drive to a separate gym can remove one more errand from the day. Richmond also has two resort-style pools with poolside cabanas, grilling stations, a pickleball court and playground, a clubhouse with a business center, and Wi-Fi in common areas, which can be useful when you need a change of scenery from your apartment.
Richmond offers one- and two-bedroom apartment homes, with floor plans ranging from 542 to 1,045 square feet. Current plan names include A1, A2, and A4 for one-bedroom homes, plus B1, B2, and B3 for two-bedroom homes. The two-bedroom layouts are worth a look if you are planning to share space, want a separate office, or need more room for fitness gear, but current pricing, lease terms, and availability are best confirmed directly with the leasing office.
Inside the homes, listed features include stainless steel appliances, brushed nickel hardware, wood-style flooring, private patios or balconies, spacious walk-in closets and linen closets, smart home door entry, exterior storage, and digital programmable thermostats. Select homes may include vaulted ceilings, wood-burning fireplaces, built-in dry bars with open shelving, full-size washers and dryers, extended sunrooms, bay windows, USB outlets, and quartz countertops, so ask the office to confirm which features are included in the specific apartment you are touring.
The broader amenity mix also supports day-to-day life near UTD. Parcel lockers help with deliveries, covered parking is available, door-to-door trash pickup is offered, and there are two clothes care centers. Richmond is pet-friendly, with a dog park on site, and the community lists 24-hour emergency maintenance for urgent service needs.
The honest trade-off is that Richmond is not on the UT Dallas campus, and it is not a walk-to-class location for most people. If your top priority is stepping out your door and walking to a lecture hall, you may want to compare on-campus or immediately adjacent Richardson options. If you prefer an off-campus apartment with a 24/7 fitness center, more residential amenities, and access to the Preston Road corridor, Richmond is worth including in your search.
If you would like to see how the fitness center, commute, and available floor plans fit your routine, contact the Richmond leasing office or schedule a tour at a time that matches your real weekday schedule.
