Prove me wrong Dallas politics and government is not an absolute shitshow.

Frisco is becoming pretty damn urban and a crap load of 20s-30s live there now.

Dallas is a shell of its former self. All that money is slowly coming North.

One bonus for Dallas though, you can steal up to $750


It is and only the inner loop folks will kick and scream until their blue in the face telling you otherwise.

Frisco, Allen, McKinney, et al all just run together neighborhood after neighborhood. It's nice when you want to raise a family and be within 5 minutes of the school, grocery store, and favorite chain restaurant you go to every Friday night. Old town McKinney is legit and probably the best spot in the area.

The real money is still in park cities and Preston hollow and that isn't changing.

Have you even been to Frisco lately?

Let's just start where the DNT and SRT intersect. You wanna call those high-rises non urban environments?

The only thing different is Frisco got the star. I lived up there for 4 years. 2 each in Frisco and McKinney. It all runs together. From 35 to 75 on 121, there's no discernable difference going through the colony, Frisco, Plano, mckinney, and Allen.

Frisco vs. Dallas is the same argument everyone has in every city

People move to the suburbs for schools and housing prices and easy-but-boring quality of life and develop this animosity toward anyone who doesn't follow their lead.

Meanwhile people in the city overlook bad government and crime and scoff at people who would center their lives around Stonebriar.

Im specifically stating THAT urban center. NOT the entire city of Plan/Frisco.

Edit: I am not implying that the entire landscape of North Dallas cities are Megalopolis. They are not.

However, specific Urban centers have definitely sprouted up just like you would see in frickey Uptown

So 1 specific stretch of like 1 mile on DNT, part of which is Frisco and part Plano makes the entirety of the city completely different from it's surroundings.

Do me a favor, go to Custer and 121. Look at each corner of the highway. Then remember, each corner is a different city and the area is identical.
