Review of Dallas, Texas


Dallas is overrated
Star Rating - 3/15/2018
I lived in Dallas for almost 10 years. I'm from Florida. Dallas is a good place to explore dining options and for work experience, but that's it. Like one reviewer said, come to Dallas to gain valuable work experience and move on. Once you've been to the Fair, A Cowboys game, Rangers, Mavs or a hockey game, you've done it all. A city is what you make it. All cities have its pros and cons, but I prefer the East Coast. People are a lot more friendlier in Florida. Dallas is a tough place to date and build meaningful friendships. It is true, people in Dallas are very materialistic. Dallas reminds me of Atlanta, just much bigger. Wish I had moved to Houston instead of Dallas, but I don't think Houston would have been any better. You like what you like and I'm a Florida girl. I'm back in Florida now and this is where I will stay. Because of the valuable work experience I obtained in Dallas, I have a good paying job in Florida. I will travel to Dallas for weekend getaways, but I going to live my life near the beach. :)

Dallas is anything like Atlanta. Atlanta has mass public transportation. A cultural gold mine, diverse population, rich in southern culture and African American culture and history. Atlanta has a sizable music scene, underground rappers and musicians. Dallas has none of that. I've lived in BOTH cities and the only thing that they have in common is the amount of poverty in the urban areas, sprawl and traffic. I never had a problem with establishing authentic friendships in Atlanta but in Dallas is a different story.
