Hot flat and ugly

I lived here for 3 years and it was a trial every day.
However the good about it was we made a lot of friends the people are the best part about FTW.
Fort Worth is popular but I believe it offers more for businesses and corporations than for the residents.
It’s expensive to live there. The property taxes are astronomical and you get very little for it. The roads and infrastructure are appalling. Traffic is ubiquitous and the potholes never get fully repaired. When we moved there (with a promotion and a raise mind you) our discretionary income went DOWN because of the property taxes.
Also it’s bereft of natural beauty. All you see is prairie, stunted “trees” and the roofs of houses. Finally the smell of petroleum and fertilizer never goes away. If you like relentless heat mixed with occasional ice storms then this is the place for you.
Crime is becoming a big issue. If you leave your car in your driveway expect to get it broken into. And the police will not do anything about it.
There are so many things I could say but it would take too long. Think twice before moving here if you can. I got out as quick as I could.
