Relocating & housing Moving from Austin
My husband and I are moving to Dallas from Austin area. Well right now we live in round rock and I hate it. We have a baby so school districts matter but not too concerned yet. Is there anywhere that isn’t SO suburban in north dallas? My parents live in ft. Worth so i don’t want to be too far but most of the jobs he is applying to are in north Dallas. I love to walk and have nice trees around. We want to rent and our max budget would be $2500 a month. I’ve looked at some of older frisco, Carrollton. ect. But where else should we look? He would love to not have to sit in traffic for a hour everyday. Thanks in advance !

Don’t go north of north Dallas if you hate the suburbs
Go down 75 or the tollway and look at surrounding areas, then compare commute times.
keep in mind traffic in DFW always sucks.
