Looking for nice upper middle class neighborhoods in Dallas Metro area. Any suggestions?
金曜日, 8月 1st, 2008It depends… will you be traveling to Dallas itself a lot? If so, you may want to live in Dallas. There are some great neighborhoods in the city itself. (Lakewood, Inwood, Stonewall Hill, Lake Highlands, and depending on your budget Preston Hollow).
The suburbs are great, but some are farther away than one would think. If you live in Plano and travel into Dallas for work, traffic is a nightmare. Frisco and Mckinney are great for families and all that, but it takes a good 45 minutes to get into Dallas.
My brother lives in Frisco and loves it. There is a part called Legacy that has become a new “mini-Dallas”, that has top notch Downtown/Uptown Dallas resturants and shopping.
I myself grew up in Firewheel (right on the edge of Plano and Richardson) so I am more into the city…. Dallas can be a beautiful place!
There is a neighborhood in between Northwest Highway and Lovers Lane that offers amazing yards and many one of a kind houses. My favorite party of Dallas is Preston Hollow (around the Dallas North Tollway, Preston and Royal area). GREAT homes, big yards, lots of uniqeness.
I would stay away from the park cities (Highland Park and University Park). They are great, and everyone loves them, but they are terribly overprices and many are 0 lot line with very small yards.
