    Hey guys

    I got a new job in Dallas and will be moving their next month. I want to live in the Las Colinas or Uptown area preferably in a loft. Anyone have any advice on some good places?

    Thanks in advance

    Dallas? Do you wear ED Hardy? make 40,000 a year, drive a nice BMW, plan to live in a ****ty apartment, make yourself look more richer than you are.

    Do you have a barbwire tattoo?

    Please annex them to Oklahoma.


    j/k
    I remember a couple of years ago here on Clutchfans it was only the latest thing to do to talk mess about Dallas.
    If i remember correctly, there was even a movie on dallas douchebaggery lol


    anyways, wish you luck, and enjoy IN N OUT (whataburger is good too, so im not hating, i know how everyone on here gets about that damn whataburger)

    Sucks for you. :(

    Commute from The Woddlands is your best bet.

    Check the Victory Park area. Lots of new and nice places, a good rail system, entertainment and sports. It's in the uptown area.

    What part of Dallas will you be working in & how old are you? Are you looking for nightlife during the week or mostly weekends?

    Addison is nice but it depends on where he'll be living.

    ^What he said...I wouldn't recommend the Las Colinas area...no good bars...I would recommend the Addison area and Uptown, but it can be pricey...

    The Village off of Lovers/75 is a good starter as you're in between both, so is West Village, but if money is no object (ala $30k millionaire), then uptown is the place to be...

    Good Places to see hot chicks: Saint Ann's, Idle Rick pub, Nick & Sam's grill, Hotel ZaZa, hell anywhere up and down McKinney...Frankie's and the MAT are good sports bars...Village Burger bar in West Village is good too...
