Review of Frisco, Texas


Counting the days till we LEAVE
Star Rating - 4/21/2013
If you like chain restaurants, bad BBQ and lots of shopping frisco is for you. Every street is 8 lanes, you can't walk anywhere, all the houses look exactly the same and there's nothing interesting to do. All people do here is eat and shop. And diversity is stuck at white people and Mexican people, unless you shop t the Asian markets.

I have a one year old daughter and I'd hate to have to actually raise her here.

People assume its cheap to live here but I spent less on groceries while living in ct than here...guess that's why everyone eats out. The weather is horrible. The summers are indescribable


I've noticed transplants from actual cities hate it here. So if you've lived in Boston, Philly, NYC, D.C., or any other major city (Dallas isn't one) you probably won't like it.

Move to Austin at least there's culture and character there. Dallas/frisco is bland.

I work as a Realtor in Frisco with Coldwell Banker and see houses and neighborhoods from all over DFW. Frisco is truly an amazing place for quality of life and a pleasant suburban experience. Go a little farther north to Celina and Prosper if you want a more rural lifestyle but take it from a man who walks through houses all day long.... THIS is the place to be!!

Did you ever actually leave your 'burb and go into either of the cities? Did you go to Deep Ellum, Bishop Arts District, Arts District, Design District, portions of Uptown Dallas, and countless areas of Fort Worth? Plenty of culture and character and PLENTY to DO!!! Not a major city? Ha!!! DFW is the 4th largest metro in the country with a higher GMP and economic output than San Fran, Philly, AND Boston (6th largest in the country). 14th highest GMP in the WORLD!!! 4th busiest airport in the WORLD!!! And we have plenty of diversity all over the place. We have countless different diverse stores, markets, restaurants, and festivals all over the place of MANY different ethnic groups. I normally don't post anything anywhere but I couldn't let these inaccuracies go unresponded to. Good day.
