Why isn't Dallas-Fort Worth more expensive?

Date: January 25th, 2022 2:45 PM Author: Chartreuse trip boistinker Large, beautiful apartments and homes in downtown core very reasonable. Seems like for a city of its size and economic wealth, it doesn't have the cultural cache or popularity you'd think it would have.

Date: January 25th, 2022 2:51 PM Author: Chartreuse trip boistinker Downtown Dallas is sketchy, really? I thought TX shipped away or killed all their homeless, at least outside Austin.
Will look into Oak Lawn.
The downtown seem large but yes, it seems weirdly dry, like nothing there but faceless glass towers and parking garages. |

Date: January 25th, 2022 2:55 PM Author: anal range Bullshit, you DO NOT want to live in Oak Lawn. (Oak Lawn is the GAY area of Dallas)
Either Plano or like Uptown if you need to live near faggots to be happy. |

Date: January 26th, 2022 9:02 AM Author: anal range i can just tell you from experience it's a pain in the ass to drive to another neighborhood to go to walgreens or something when you could just live in plano and walk to stuff (not that you would, but it's possible. not possible downtown) (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5016558&forum_id=2#43849166) |

Date: January 26th, 2022 9:17 AM Author: Swollen hominid Right, but by point is that you're not going to live in Downtown Dallas either. You're going to live around Plano, hang out in Plano, etc. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5016558&forum_id=2#43849226) |

anyway there are not really any restaurant/bars in downtown dallas
if you want to take a shrew to brunch you would go to uptown anyway
which might as well be addison |

Think about that for a second |

|
Date: January 26th, 2022 9:33 AM Author: Vibrant Dead Stag Film Proud to say no, I haven’t.
Facts remain, Robocop was filmed in Dallas because it was a more accurate (and cheaper to film) depiction of an urban hellscape compared to Detroit.
Granted this was 1989 or whatever but still. |
|
Date: January 26th, 2022 9:42 AM Author: motley sandwich Actually they filmed it in Dallas because at the time Dallas was very futuristic-looking, especially compared to Detroit
Today both cities are run-down shitholes though |

DFW has a few of the latter but certainly not more than e.g. Chicago (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5016558&forum_id=2#43845312) |
|
Date: January 25th, 2022 3:00 PM Author: anal range i would argue the difference is that most of the employers are in Plano/Frisco/Far North Dallas
it's not like Chicago where every thing is centered inside the loop |
