  • Top 10 reasons everyone is moving to Dallas, Texas. One will shock you.
    Everyone seems to be moving to Dallas, here are 10 reasons why.
    Dallas is a great place to live and people have been relocating there at a pretty good rate for the last decade or so. They have affordable real estate, low taxes, and a semi-decent crime rate.
    This video is just 10 of the reasons people are moving to Dallas, Texas.
    Let's take a look at why so many people want to live in Dallas, Texas.
    Do you need a local Realtor for the area you want to move to?
    I have teamed up with HomeAndMoney.com to help you find one that suits your needs.

      It was easy driving almost all over the United States including the outskirts of Texas until I got into Dallas. Road construction is a never-ending thing, but I don't think they improve the situation, but have turned it into a nightmare... multiple loops...roads with four lanes.. getting stuck on toll roads....missing an exit and having to spend 10+ minutes trying to correct the mistake.

We're retired and pay no property tax, in addition to no state income tax. Food, gas utilities are cheap here - house is all electric so our bill varies from $70-$190 per month, water $75.00 and this is for 3 people. Being older, we appreciate all the great hospitals and medical care. And we haven't had any snow or ice for over 3 years. It's April and I'm already growing peppers, onions and tomatoes. Dallas is not perfect and is very crowded now, so find yourself a quiet area if possible.

      Dallas and Texas in general has geography as an advantage over other parts of the country. It's centrally located, it doesn't snow, and it's flat. Now flat may be boring, but it makes home building a whole lot easier and cheaper. The availability and cost of land is the biggest factor in the cost of homes. Homes use to be affordable in Southern California, before we built over all the orange groves and strawberry fields. Plus we have mountains. But Texas is one great big state. And it's nearly all flat. So you've got a long way to go before you run out of building space. Good luck with your growth!

The weather is great in the autumn and for those summers, there’s a plethora of lakes and even an Indoor waterpark in Grand Prairie you can cool off in. The music scene here is crazy and the jobs are endless. The suburbs of Dallas, especially Irving, are exploding with new Houses and highway systems. The city is open to any political opinion as you have a peaceful mix of Liberals and Conservatives. Rich in Hispanic culture and African American culture as well. Museums and amusement parks are abundant as well. Fort Worth is a half hour away and have fantastic restaurants as well. Literally anything you can think of. Dallas has it. I was born in this city in ‘99 and I hope i die here too.

Dallas is an easy city to live in. If you can't make it in Dallas you are just not trying. I agree it's getting crowded here but not as nearly as crowded as NYC, L.A, or Chi-town. Oh and b.t.w. don't believe the "dry -heat" comment, that's simply not true. The humidity is about the ONLY thing I DON'T like about living here..

    Im from Texas, specifically Dallas, and well i agree with all of these, EXCEPT 4 because there is times when the weather gets insanely crazy, and its not just heat, but this past december and january, in just 1 week you can have freezing temperatures and hot sunny days, which is really annoying

    Nice to see my home city on here ! I was born and raised here and I’ve seen it grow and grow and grow... I’ve always known it was just kinda cool to be here. I’m sure I will never leave however it’s been good to me. I do have a summer home in Florida on the coast but Dallas will always be home ! The heat is not that bad and it’s just real hot a few months out of the year.. but dry tho. If you like motorcycles you will have one here. Seems to have cooled some in recent years I say. Still there is always something to do and it’s never boring. Great video. Ps: if you can’t find a job here you don’t belong here! Period :)

    PERFECT JOB, mentioning, Dallas's Light-Rail expansion. My better half lives there, so I get to the city A LOT. I have to say that when it comes to cities that have done rapid transit correctly, Dallas is first, at least in the U.S. Planners of these lines definitely considered Urban Sprawl, when they planned the routes. In fact, their light-rail system is one of the best things about the city... Other than the fact that I feel so skinny there due to the fact that folks are a lot more beefier than the twinks here in the San Francisco Bay area. I love Dallas, and your video was right on the money.
    Oh, and thanks for the extra restaurant tips. I'm goin' to them all when I get back in August. You're the man.

    A lot of the items he mentioned are not just Dallas but entail the entire area of DFW. An example is the home prices, those rates the average for all of DFW, no way is an apt. in Dallas averaging the price he said. Another is the sports, the Cowboys play in Arlington, their practice stadium is in Frisco (you showed it). But otherwise, good job.

    I'm from Atlanta. I did training in Dallas for about 13 days & I've gotta say - Dallas surprised me. It seemed more comfortable with being a big City than ATL. And, the Vibe, Urban Planning & ESP. the traffic (yes, heavy...but it moves) just seemed better.
    I also second all the other stuff that this video mentioned, although I didn't go to the TX fair.

      Only poor people from Cali are moving to Texas. Those who have smaller dreams and those who cannot afford living in LA, SF, etc. but wants big space that they dont even deserve. .On the other hand, smart ambitious Texans are moving to California, making Cali expensive.
      All the great things happen in California. TH-cam is headquartered in Cali, not Texas. That says you something about Cali's innovation.

    Yeah, at one time I begged the universe to let me live in Dallas. I loved it. It's not what I thought before I saw the city for the first time. Instead, it's clean, bigger than big, and more green than I expected. The shopping is second to none. It's an easy metroplex to navigate (unlike Portland where I live now). I didn't realize their public transportation system was as good as you pointed out -- good to know. The bugs can be HUGE however and even with their gigantic size, they still run for cover into the baseboards as I horrifyingly witnessed in a Ft. Worth gas station restroom one time. And yes, I screamed. The shock factor was too much for me to hold back. Great city, though.
