    Been in Dallas 6 months, was around for the Tornado warning last month. It was a little wild, but everyone tells me that it's pretty unusual. Coming from LA, traffic isn't nearly as bad. Dallas is perfect for me & my family. The schools are way better. My son loves it and has so many friends here. It isn't perfect here but the PROs definitely outweigh the CONs. It is what you make it.

      Thanks for sharing as a recent relocation to Dallas. That was our experience years ago as well.

      I'm in route to Dallas within the next month or so, coming from upstate NY. I'm having some difficulty securing employment. I currently work with people living with developmental disabilities, but I have a bachelor's degree in Social Work and pivoting is a keen interest. If you have any contacts or leads, I'm open and appreciative. ​@livingindfw

    I agree with all you have said. The private schools are excellent but expensive. But if you have children with special needs there are many to choose from. We live in the city because of the proximity to work, usually a 20 min commute. The property taxes are truly outrageous. However, if you are a senior there is a cap on how much they can go up. Also the proximity to excellent hospitals and healthcare is a plus. But all in all it is expensive and crowded. A common problem with urban living.

      Thanks Linda for watching and sharing your thoughts. Living downtown does have its perks. No area has it all, you choose what’s best for you and your family.

    we left Dallas Texas because when the sun went down there wasn't enough power to keep our ac running because of wind and solar with the grid or oncor. the second reason is because we couldn't walk outside in the summer months. third reason it is 77 to 82 degrees overnight. Our apartment was on avg 78 to 82 degrees for months with the ac on. we were told that was normal in Texas. Texas is very car dependent and GPS dependent. The last reason is with all the growth with Texas that it is pushing up the cost of rent and the cost for a house. We are saving 300 a month on rent because we moved to the Midwest. honestly it feels comfortable on most days in the Midwest. Irving Texas doesn't have a DMV or a normal mall. we had to travel to a different city to get our driver licence . I had to go to a different city just to go to an apple store. Irving mall is a dead mall. when we did go into Dallas it didn't look like a normal city with a growing mall but it looked like a dump or the west end. you have to live in rich or upper middle class neighborhoods to enjoy the DWF area. YOU have to drive or take a ride share [ uber, lyft} because it is impossible to take the bus or train. My family learned the hard way that public transit is a nightmare in DWF or Irving.

      Where did you move to? I'd only say Chicago being an upgrade but to each is own. I love Dallas but I make 90k a year.

      Thanks again for watching and sharing. Glad you’re happy in the Midwest. Dallas north Texas is t for everyone, and that’s ok.

    Moved here 2019 comparing dallas in 2019 to 2022 is like Whole Foods to walmart
    And it’s gotten far worse YoY since 2022!

      Thanks Sang for watching and your feedback. Are you talking about living in Downtown Dallas or do you live in one of the surround suburbs? Also what would you say has gotten worse?

  • @avflyguy
    @avflyguy Před 24 dny +2

    Traffic is the worst. As usual expansion is far past demand. I-35 N and South, DNT N&S- Major expansion effort to 4 lanes. (BTW-costs .21¢ per mile to use DNT). From 380 to 121. Speaking of 380? Impossible from Denton to McKinney even though it's been under widening for last 3-4 years- will be outdated even with 3 lanes instear of 2, and now 75 from 190 to 121. Removing what was a 'restricted lane' - being reworked to remove that designation - 2 yr project.

      Thanks avflyguy for watching and sharing your insights. Where are you living? So people can understand where you perspective is coming from.

  • @anthobacaanthobaca9766

    I know as a real estate company you probably don't want to mention it but politics play a very real impact in why people are flocking to the metroplex but want nothing to do with Dallas or Tarrant (tolerant) county

      Thanks again for watching. People move here for many reasons, politics are one.

    Dallas is exploding but infrastructure is slow. Any city that ignores public transportation will die in another 30-40 years. People would not want to drive 45-60 minutes one way to work.

    • @livingindfw

      You say that, but that is what happens. My husband has coworkers willing to drive over an hour to have a new home out of the city. All about trade offs.

      Don’t know what you’re missing 🙂. There must be a reason so many people have moved here right? Every place has goods and bad’s , just need to choose what’s most important to you.

    Dallas is too blue. I recommend living in the Dallas suburbs or Fort Worth.
    Keep Texas Red.

      Thank Dante for watching and sharing. Dallas is indeed very liberal, but honestly it’s not any different than any major metro area in this country. Suburbs even in more liberal states tend to be more moderate and even lean on conservative.
