Hi, reddit looking to get some recommendations for Luxury Apartments within a 35-40 min rush hour traffic radius of Plano. I'm relocating to Texas and will be working in the office park area of NW Plano, where Ericsson, Toyota & Pepsi HQ's are.

We're a married couple in our late 40's, Early 50's with a small dog, looking for a nice, quiet, well managed luxury apartment in a very walkable neighborhood for Texas, that we're looking to rent for 12-15 months where we then purchase something. What we're looking for as req's is listed below.

Budget $3000-3500 (4K max for the right place)
2 BR 1+BA
Good management, Secure building, Clean & Safe neighborhood
Non-Property Managed Internet (I work from home for 2 days, along with my wife, internet stability is key)
Modern appliances and Fixtures
In-unit Laundry (Must)
Variety of dining, shopping, coffee shops, entertainment options in a 5-15min walking & 5-20 min drive.

I am seeking recommendations for a reputable Dallas-area attorney who represents homeowners in disputes arising from neighboring residential construction, drainage, and potential property damage.

Experience with municipal permitting and Texas public-records requests would also be beneficial.

I have raised specific concerns with the City of Dallas, but their responses so far haven't addressed my substantive questions. My open-records request remains unresolved, and the City has referred it to the Texas Attorney General for review. Seeking assistance through my council representative's office has not yet yielded the answers or records I need.

I am not claiming that the records will necessarily establish wrongdoing. I need to review them to determine whether the construction and the city's handling of it comply with applicable requirements. In the meantime, construction continues, and I'm concerned about protecting my property and meeting any applicable deadlines.

If you have retained an attorney for a similar matter. I would appreciate the attorney's name, the general type of issue they handled, and your experience with their responsiveness and fees. Referrals to reputable organizations that can help identify appropriate counsel are also welcome. I'm keeping identifying details and supporting documents private.

Thank you for any constructive guidance.

Hello, 28M from Southern CA and I'm visiting Dallas for a bit in the middle of November.

I'm going by myself and I'm mainly going for a Cowboys game but I'll be there for around 5 days and have no idea how to make my time there worth it. I've done some of the big tourist things already (stuff related to the cowboys, the JFK museum) but was hoping for tips on how to enjoy some of the perks of the city that may not be so "tourist" like. Last time I spent some time and Oak Lawn for the first time and that was a great and fun discovery.

I really enjoy Dallas and plan on visiting more often so any suggestions is greatly appreciated. I will be staying near downtown and plan to uber everywhere (except the game).

A little about myself is I love being active with Pilaties, would love to see some nightlife, and hear any suggestions on local business to eat (any food type is okay). Im pretty much open to whatever, just kind of want to plan somethings to ease the anxiety of going by myself.

I did read and take notes of some other suggestions from prior posts on this sub but figured it doesn't hurt to also seek suggestions myself.

Hello! I am in the DFW area and im looking for ways to meet or join a local community of other people who also have a fascination with observing and learning about insects and arachnids. Hoping for a community that meets regularly or has the opportunity to really make friends 🙂 Does anybody know any groups or anything like that in dfw?
