Default Dallas

Hey guys! It has been my dream to move to Texas for awhile. Mainly due to the cheap housing and good job market. I also hear that it is great for singles and night life I just started a job that has an office in Dallas, and I would be VERY interested in transferring there.

What can you guys tell me good about Dallas?

Thanks

Ya Dallas is a great area, if you are looking for housing Collin county is a great area, and literally everything is within 10 min max, weather is great, stays warm 9 of the 12 months.

Collin County/Denton County here. Moved to Prosper after living in Dallas most of my life. Love it out here. And being an OU fan, it takes me 2.5 hours to get to Norman, OK to watch some sooner ball!
