great weather! good place to settle down. - 9/4/2007
i lived in wichita falls for a short period from very late august 2005 to the last week of december 2005. even from being there a short time, i'm convinced that i would enjoy living there again! i lived at the roadrunner apartments next to sheppard afb- only the friendliest people there! the owner of the apartments was so polite and made me feel at home. the people just tend to be like that there- no complaints! there are SOOO many things to do there, and the weather will hardly ever go against you when you a plan a day out in the sun. i got there at the end of summer, but it was still very nice and the sun was always shining- even towards the winter. there was very little snow, but still enought to make a girl from chicago happy Read More

got potential - 5/6/2007
Not much to do in this town but 2hrs from Dallas and OK city. East of I-44 is a economic disaster. Where most other city's would have forced demolition this one is interested in taxes. The city code enforcement seems to be on the take. Crime is where you expect it. The city is taking an agressive approach to the latin gangs with cutting edge laws. Dont get me wrong this is not Dallas or LA just a bunch of local wanna be's that have potential to do whats been done to most larger Tx cities. Drivers are passive agressive. The citys survival hinges on the air base,PPG,and few other industry's. Most new housing and business is west of I-44. Housing rates are stable, with good schools that are just getting the needed funds to upgrade.Overall a good place to raise a Read More

much better - 12/29/2006
I visited Wichita Falls in the summer of 2006 and fell in love with the place and the people that I met there. I came back to Michigan and immediately put my house up for sale. It is now January and I am set to move to this beautiful city, bought a house, and already have a new job lined up. Compared to Michigan the economy is booming. Jobs are plentiful and the people are so Read More

lawenforcement - 8/9/2005
The patroling enforcement, have no respect for civilization. They act as though a person who makes a small traffic violation is the scum of the earth, like they've never made mistakes. The laws we are suppose to abide by, do not pretain to them. If people were perfect (like they claim to be) how would they earn a paycheck? No mistakes, no taffic violations, no money, would led to no paycheck. So instead of downgrating the public for their mistakes, shouldn't they thank the lawbreaker for putting food on their table? They are also more worried about the drug problem in the town, than solving the numerous unsolved murders. The drugs have $$money$$ envolved, unlike a innocent victim whos life has been taken. Drug dealers choose to sell drugs, drug users choose to use drugs, but do victims choose to be a Read More
