North Hills has a neighborhood association (North Hills Neighborhood Pride Association, NHNPA). A portion of it is leased by the US Army as family housing for soldiers stationed at Fort Bliss. Many of the streets have names beginning with "Loma" (Spanish for hill), for example, Loma Clara, Loma del Sur, Loma Roja, Loma Franklin. North Hills is bordered on the west by a flood-control levee approximately half a mile west of Martin Luther King Boulevard; beyond it is Franklin Mountains State Park, which is closed to development and is open for hiking and biking. To the east, beyond a utility easement about three-eighths of a mile east of Martin Luther King Boulevard on the east side of the Richardson Middle School campus, is the newly developed Sandstone Ranch neighborhood; and to the north is undeveloped land used for grazing and slated for eventual development. North Hills contains Chuck Heinrich Park, a city park located in the southwestern portion of the neighborhood at the southern end of Andrew Barcena Drive, both of which are named for El Paso police officers killed in the line of duty; the park has a monument dedicated to El Paso law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty and sometimes hosts memorial services dedicated to them.

A new high school, as yet unnamed, which will serve what is now the portion of the Andress attendance zone north of the Patriot Freeway (US 54) to the New Mexico state line, is in the planning stages, and was originally slated to be built using funding from a 2007 bond issue; however, in 2014 it was decided by the EPISD board of managers that development of the area did not yet justify a new high school and the funds set aside for its construction were reallocated. The money allocated went to Franklin High School. Andress High's feeder schools include H.E. Charles, Nolan Richardson, and Terrace Hills Middle Schools; the elementary schools in the Andress feeder pattern include Barron, Bradley, Collins, Fannin, Tom Lea, Newman, and Nixon.
