Popular Destinations In and Around Dallas

By Roy Owens

Richardson to Plano to Allen to McKinney .there never seems to be an end to the Dallas suburbs. And now we're starting to see growth in the 'exurbs'. Richardson is roughly 20 miles northeast of downtown Dallas is an area that is enjoying the exceptional growth in employment due to the Telecom Corridor developments as well as the other major corporate moves to the area.

Richardson is well known for the above mentioned 'telecom corridor' and a number of high tech firms that have set shop here. Richardson is 20 miles northeast of Dallas, and has at its side highways, like the Tollway, 1-90 George Bush, Central Expressway, 121 which are quite busy and also well known. The area has some of the area's older neighborhoods with homes that have larger trees and also great landscaping. While town homes and condos are getting to be much more prominent, with Turtle Creek being quiet convenient in terms of providing access to the city.

One of the best places to stay in Dallas is Highland Park. It is quite near Mockingbird and Central Expressway and also quite centrally located in between Oak Lawn, SMU and Downtown Dallas too. Highland Pak Village is well known for its shopping avenues and the Highland Park Independent School District is also well accepted and established here. The Turtle Creek is quite close by and one can go for wonderful strolls here. This area has some of the most gorgeous homes in town and it is the 41st wealthiest city in the US and 19th wealthiest if you consider a population in excess of 1,000.

Plano is another well established area in Dallas. It has the reputation of being an exciting place to reside in, and while it was razed to the ground in 1881, it was quickly reconstructed. Plano has a number of gristmills, sawmills and also store works which are general. This is why so many early Texans settled here, in order to get employment and also be able to stay in the vicinity of their place of work. In terms of population growth, Plano had 7% increase, Allen 11% McKinney a 9% rise and Frisco had an 8% hike in population numbers.

If you want quality housing, do have a look at Lake Highlands too. It is ideal for families and community, with separate family neighborhoods being quite stable unlike the few dilapidated houses in its area. The far eastern edges of Dallas are suitable for rental or ultra-cheap housing. Also, Lakewood is located east, near the Whiterock Lack and has many historic and conservation districts there that protect the many old homes. This area also has older neighborhoods and homes along with mature, age-old trees lining its streets. - 23167
