Finally an honest take on the negatives. Literally every video on DFW has been trying to downplay the negatives like they are nothing. Thank You for an honest take
The story about the flying roach had me weeeeeeeaaakkk!🤣 this review was very helpful. I’ll try to find a home with ceiling fan and more trees. Thank you!
I really appreciate this video. I was able to convince my wife and kids to move there by next year. And don t feel bad about that roach cause I'm 6'2, 270lbs and if I had seen that roach, I would've broken my lease and moved out that day
We lived in Dallas for a year. Also lived through the frozen grid issues of Feb '21. It was so cold, no heat. Grew up in Canada so no winter wimp here. Summer crazy hot and humid. Even a day when it's 75, add the heat index from high humidity and you can easily overheat. We did like it overall but have moved away. Cockroaches are as described and will be all over your house, impossible to get rid of.
Just reading through the comments I don’t hear too many cons seeing as though I’m coming from the DC area. Heavy traffic, rude people and bipolar weather sounds like home to me lol
I lived in Dallas from 2013-2017. Then just recently moved back. I can confirm all of what he’s saying. He did not miss 🤣 but because I’ve lived all over the United States: IL, CA, MI, GA, OH, MI just to name a few states and ya know some of the things he mentioned you’ll find in all of those places. So I guess it’s choose the devil you know and do your research and find a neighborhood you can stand to live and work in. Also them roaches come with nikes and luggage, best advise they show up just run they like to fight 🤣
Thank you for this honest take about living in the DFW area. Out of all of your videos, I haven't seen a video about Garland. I'm looking at moving to Garland, TX coming from NYC. Do you have any information about living in Garland?
Yeah it’s crazy when I moved here from Alabama I notice racism with some Hispanics here just to be honest back home it’s not that many Hispanics in Alabama but here I relocated I have experience some racism from them the traffic here is hectic sometimes and it’s always construction on some of the highways there are jobs here can’t lie about that the weather in the winter is bipolar that’s just the honest truth
I feel the same way about the racism from Hispanics here. You think dallas is bad go visit minor cities throughout Texas where there is no black people. I was stared at nearly every public place I went. From gas stations to public stores.. People here are not as friendly it just depends on your circle.
All 📠, I've been in North Texas for over 12 years, the Hispanics do their best 'let me impress whyte mommy and daddy with my racism" mentality. It's not just them though.
I heard that EVERYWHERE has roaches even the nice neighborhoods is this true? I heard it doesn’t matter how clean you keep things they’re always there.
Walk ability is non existent in all of Texas which being from Los Angeles is hard to get used to. I was like wow you can’t even walk to the corner, around the corner or across the road? 😳 that’s insane.
Well I was considering Dallas since my budget of 2 mill gets me a mansion .. but after the roach story = nope. Same reason I crossed out Delray Beach , boca ratón, and a mansion on the beach of myrtle beach lol
I lived in Dallas over 20 years and never went to Fort Worth 😂...If you live in any other Dallas suburb the commute is easy 15-30 minutes, provided it's not peak traffic.
Drinking game: take a shot every time he says “DFW” All jokes aside, thanks for the information. I will more than likely contact you for some realtor help. I am getting transferred from the PNW to Texas. Looking for houses in the Arlington, Colony, denton area. Cheers 🍻
Your video was very informative. It’s hard to find a list of cons on DFW and your video is the first one that mentioned crime. I just visited DFW and I can see the traffic and distance of everything being a con.
This is our second stint in the DFW (2000-2004), just relocated from Houston in March 2022. You nailed the list. I think we should add vehicle registration is painfully expensive!!!
If you want to save money, then I strongly suggest that you get an oscillating electric fan. You might want to also take a cold shower and wear a cold towel around your neck in the evening. I used to live in Bangkok, Saigon, and Merida, Yucatan all places where it's over 90 degrees every day with about 80 percent humidity ten months out of the year. Also keep your windows cracked open at night. Do the same with your car.
To many Dayum' 7-Eleven store's around the dfw metroplex on every block you want miss them there over thousands of them here" surprised this wasn't mentioned in this context
Excellent content buddy, loving your videos - very genuine. Thinking of joining you in GP come the summer. What electricity company do you suggest one should Stay away from? Thanks!
I currently use stream they are pretty affordable, i would avoid TXU, they were pretty expensive when i had them. But there are a ton of options to choose from here
I went to Dallas for a few work trips in the past. I remember one evening coming back from a dinner, a group of us walked down the sidewalk and when I happened to look down...lawd. What I thought was some leaves blowing by actually happened to be a literal sea of roaches just scurrying around. There were some as large as my hand. I would never live there because I can only imagine how many I would find in a house
Those aren't roaches they are water bugs, looking for water just like humans. If you have bugs inside your home then you're probably not taking care of your business when it comes to keeping things nest and clean. Pest control should be done at least once per quarter, minimum. If there's an infestation in an Apartment community, then some of the tenants may not be keeping things clean, and management needs to take a firmer approach to eradicating the problem. Dallas and Ft. Worth are two completely separate cities , both have their own separate city government. Dallas is in Dallas County, and Ft. Worth is in Tarrant County They are 28 miles apart. The Terminology "DFW" is only used to describe the Airport that serves the two cities, and sets between the two. Someone should have told this young man that before he took a job in Dallas. The electricity bill in an Apartment should not run $100 + I've been back home in Dallas since 2015, I've never had an electric bill above $80 in summer and $60-70, in the winter, now maybe during these freak winter storms you might receive a higher electric bill. Keep your thermostat turned down when you're leaving for the day, the A/C and or heat should not be running at the highest temp all day. The crime rate is approximately the same here as it is in any modern day metropolitan city. Just like up North, there are people who would rather commit crimes than work for what they need or want in life. Stop spreading those type falsehoods, please. Just tell people you didn't do your just due research before moving here, it's okay to do that, it's not a big deal. Bugs- you're in the south , the climate is much warmer for far longer than up North, which means some insects will be around a bit longer than elsewhere. The average speed limit in Texas is 70mph on most roads, and 75 mph on some others. If that's a problem then those who have a problem with it, should probably just drive the surface streets. In recent years the Meroplex has seen it's share of transplants from just about everywhere in the U.S. and beyond, so traffic has increased with the huge increase in population. The local housing market has seen it's share of increases with the influx of new people Coming to the city due to company transfers or those just looking to be able to afford a home, having said that ,DFW has been welcoming buyers and renters ffrom California, Florida, Michigan, Ohio, Missouri, New York, New Jersey and so on and so forth. These are locales where the median home buying price is upwards of $1,000,0000,000. So coming ng here has drastically driven up the prices of homes locally. They figure that if they have people willing to pay $300,000/450,000 for a home then they are going to charge that. Same with apartments. The incomes paid in some of the cities listed above, pales in comparison to the incomes that are paid here in Texas. So while I understand some of your frustrations, I also want to let people know that just like anywhere you move, you've got to do your research before moving. Don't just take people's word for stuff, do your own in depth research.
how diverse is dfw outside or dallas? I lived in Weatherford until gradeschool then moved to okc. I'm in Chicago now and love the diversity we have here.
Flying cockroach’s is something I won’t like 😩 god dam electric bills are 250 plus that’s insane those are the two cons for me and great video again man!! U rock
Thank you so much, you probably won’t see too many flying cockroaches lol, it was a one off experience for me 😅😅, and also you can avoid the high electricity bill of you pick the right electricity company. I made the mistake of picking the wrong one and i paid the price for it literally lol
pick "reliant" if you are gonna go with an electric company and ask for the "predictable" plan.. you pay a flat rate of about $120 a month & you can run up as much electricity all you want..been using em for years
Sounds exactly like FL!!!! lol I am considering DFW or Arizona as a place to live! I am doing my research to weigh out the pros and cons of these areas! Housing cost is one of my factors but the biggest one for me is safety!
Hello! I found your video informative for a NYer. Now, in Forth Worth as a non driver due to health issues, does this area have 4 bedroom 3 bathrooms new built townhouses?
Dallas definitely have unhappy people it’s annoying. People have an attitude all the time and I couldn’t stand it. The weather sucks, too damn hot and miserable!
Please ask someone who actually has lived in Texas for more than 5 minutes.We also DON'T say DFW. Houses in Dallas/Ft. Worth metro is very reasonable. Again.... Please ask someone who has been here more than 5 minutes.
I'm looking to move to Texas. I want to buy some cheap land and get a tiny house but it seems the cheapest land is in west Texas in areas where a a single bw probably wouldn't be safe, lol.
I've lived here all my life!! I'm so done. Crowed ,getting more and more expensive, rude people, traffic , the homeless are out of control. High home taxes, getting way to blue for my taste.
I'm born & raised in Chicago, IL. Cost of living is high, don't like cold weather. Are winter's are brutal, but , I know how how to drive in the snow, construction, traffic, crime , cold weather. How would I do there?
What’s the best electric company to use? Oh and I’m coming from Az to, how did you get over coming from sunny AZ to rainy Dallas? That’s my only worry.
Which neighborhood are the most diversity ? What careers or employers are paying the highest pay in what field ? How are the police are they harassing I have black sons and that is a big problem where I am from so I’m just trying to get away from that
I’m a retired Veteran with a 14 year old son and plan to move to Texas I have Grand Prairie and Mansfield in mind please give me your insight on which one to choose.
Really just depends, Grand Prairie is pretty established/ but is still growing and is convenient to everything. Mansfield is a little bit more in the country side, it’s a little bit more expensive out there and is steadily growing. They have a lot of new construction communities popping up but don’t have a lot of the amenity you will find in a more developed area
There are no reasons not to move to Dallas. Dallas is the best city in the south, from its friendly people to polite drivers, and all 4 seasons, Dallas is incredible. No cons at all. Traffic you say, any big city has that. Bugs are everywhere.
Yes I’m from the Hampton roads area, definitely a different vibe, honestly i like Texas because of the opportunities it has to offer, and there is just a ton to do here . Way different from being on the east coast
Just visited Dallas, the drivers are very nice...compared to Las Vegas, here they are super rude-crazy and just plain dangerous, or distracted, high/drunk or plain incompetent.
Don't move here, worse mistake I've ever made, I've been to many cities, many different counties, places, this is the worse place I've been. People isn't friendly as mentioned, they are racist as hell, petty, competitive even to get to the red light first, lots of drivers drive drunk or stoned, good luck getting in a freeway, they rather mess your life than allow you to merge. Crime is up, some areas not safe at all, most restaurants per capita in the country but most places are to eat sucks, people are proid about Texas even when the thing you talking about, could be burgers, ice cream, Texas is always better, when they are not. Health care is sucks, politics is hatred division, don't come, it sucks!!!!
That 4-inch cockroach that flies is what we Texans refer to as a water bug or a tree Roach, it is definitely in the roach family but it is on steroids! they also like to Scurry over the top of your face while you're sleeping at night!!!😳😜🥴
@@wheretoliveindallastexas It is 'The DFW Metroplex'. That is the proper name we were told to use when the DFW Airport opened in 1974. The local governments paid an advertising agency a lot of money to come up with the name 'The DFW Metroplex' and we, the general public, were told to use that.
Jonathan, you need to go their main office in Frisco TX. I used to work near their complex they do hire administrative staff put in your resume you never know
@@jonathan6480 they hire staff year round you know Jerry Jones loves to make money. they have a whole business running 7 days a week 365 days! They always look for restaurant staff, giftshop and pro shop retail and tour guides etc. www.dallascowboys.com/career-opportunities check out this link
😂😂, I just want to be as transparent as possible, although there are a a lot of bad traits that the DFW has to offer, I still enjoy living here because of the many great things that the DFW has to offer.

Agreed
Word. I lived there for 8 yrs. There are definitely Prod but Dallas has its short comings as well

5. Property Taxes
6. High Electric Bill
7. Housing Prices
8. Construction
9. Diversity
10. Hailstorms/Tornadoes

Try using a dehumidifier. It will make the air dry and less intense.

Go solar panels for the AC they have them for fans And bigger AC units for Apartments
Thank you for keeping it real, especially about the roaches. Dang. Four inch long *flying* cockroaches?!? Nope.
Are there any reasonable mobile homes for sale with or without land for seniors? If renting, what's the average space rent?

If you have bugs inside your home then you're probably not taking care of your business when it comes to keeping things nest and clean. Pest control should be done at least once per quarter, minimum.

My girl
There are no reasons not to move to Dallas. Dallas is the best city in the south, from its friendly people to polite drivers, and all 4 seasons, Dallas is incredible. No cons at all. Traffic you say, any big city has that. Bugs are everywhere.
Cockroaches freak me out......so your story about the flying cockroach made me laugh! LOL
Where are the best areas in the Subs for black families? Can you tell me about Desoto
There’s really not a lot to do in De soto it’s a suburban feel ,on the outskirts but there isn’t a lot to do ther
So basically don’t live in dfw cause it’s far away from everything !
Have you lived in Virginia? Would it be beneficial to move from richmond va to Dallas fort worth region?
Yes I’m from the Hampton roads area, definitely a different vibe, honestly i like Texas because of the opportunities it has to offer, and there is just a ton to do here . Way different from being on the east coast
@@wheretoliveindallastexas I’m thinking about moving there from Richmond as well. Can’t grow medically it’s cool
Okay 80 in the fast lane! Dont get on these roads if you not gonna pick up your speed!!! We got bad road rage out here😂
Sweet heart. You don’t have road rage
How often do Tornadoes occur?
Oh shit! #14 and 15. The Nascar drivers on the freeways and the crime. High crime?? Hummm, I thought it was "open carry" in the state of Texas.
so far you are describing Florida
10:42 is Texas total electric?
Just visited Dallas, the drivers are very nice...compared to Las Vegas, here they are super rude-crazy and just plain dangerous, or distracted, high/drunk or plain incompetent.
LOL i could totally relate to that roach story
Don't move here, worse mistake I've ever made, I've been to many cities, many different counties, places, this is the worse place I've been.
People isn't friendly as mentioned, they are racist as hell, petty, competitive even to get to the red light first, lots of drivers drive drunk or stoned, good luck getting in a freeway, they rather mess your life than allow you to merge.
Crime is up, some areas not safe at all, most restaurants per capita in the country but most places are to eat sucks, people are proid about Texas even when the thing you talking about, could be burgers, ice cream, Texas is always better, when they are not.
Health care is sucks, politics is hatred division, don't come, it sucks!!!!
this fool said it can get up to 98°... bro we surpass 100° on a daily basis in the summer
Flying cockroaches are called water bugs here
Please everyone...Move to Dallas!
Same thing in Georgia when it comes to crime Crime is everywhere you just have to stay safe
I mean it’s Texas bri
"the thing I love about the diversity here" *what a true philanthropist 😀* "is the food choices" *oh 😐*

$4? I am not moving. I’m afraid of bugs 🐜😃😄😄
That 4” cockroach must’ve been a mini dragon!
You say DFW way too many times
Umm there is a lot to do I mean never dord
That 4-inch cockroach that flies is what we Texans refer to as a water bug or a tree Roach, it is definitely in the roach family but it is on steroids! they also like to Scurry over the top of your face while you're sleeping at night!!!😳😜🥴
damn 😂
I live on the second floor of my apartment so luckily I don't encounter them. But my neighbors below probably do 😭
WTH? Seriously? That would put me in the funny farm. 🥴😵🥴😵
What@??
STOP calling it THE DFW. It's just DFW
Sorry I’m new here lol… geeesh !!!
@@wheretoliveindallastexas It is 'The DFW Metroplex'. That is the proper name we were told to use when the DFW Airport opened in 1974. The local governments paid an advertising agency a lot of money to come up with the name 'The DFW Metroplex' and we, the general public, were told to use that.
Still cheaper than Phoenix.
My dream is to work for the Cowboys.
😪😪😪
Jonathan, you need to go their main office in Frisco TX. I used to work near their complex they do hire administrative staff put in your resume you never know
@@laqueatabrown9916 Thsnks for the tip! I wouldn't mind working for their gift shop. Are you talking about seasonal staff?

Dude if it is that bad, then why are you still here? Just asking for a friend.
😂😂, I just want to be as transparent as possible, although there are a a lot of bad traits that the DFW has to offer, I still enjoy living here because of the many great things that the DFW has to offer.
Dude literally every city has negatives the problem I've seen is that people from Dallas just don't want to acknowledge them
Dallas is NOT humid! People who say that have sweat gland disorders or something.
I remember it being dry heat hahaha. Now Houston, thats another beast
Dallas is way better than Houston I wish I could move
😂yeah not humid for an oven.
That’s a water bug not a cockroach
What about all the pretentious people in DFW. Nobody should move to DFW it's awful and nothing to offer.
If you want the truth about moving here, don't listen to a realtor.
