Carrollton? Lewisville?
Geographically split between work and a Faith community we would be apart of.

What kind of firearm culture, i.e. ranges and comfort culture overall? Crime? Grime? Or coffee shops, plazas, middle America/southern charm culture?

Thanks!

Some parts of lewisville are in da hood now. Not sure about Carrollton. Id research the neighborhood good and well before moving to that area.

I work in Carrollton, but only for a few weeks so far. But did look at a few homes there.

Seems pretty industrial with some decent homes as well. Good prices compared to Plano.

If you are considering Lewisville, check out Highland Village. Very nice.

Carrollton north has some very nice areas. Hebron Parkway area is nice from Midway and north and west.

There are nice 2500ish SF homes there, and there are 5000 SF homes there. Several new home subs there. But the area just north of 635, and just north of The Bush can be dicey.

You need to realize that West Plano (really nice), Carrollton, and The Colony are in close proximity.

And FYI, Decatur is 30 miles west of Denton.

Great advice. Thank you.

Yeah. I noticed Decatur's coordinates. Seems like a charming hub if one were going to do a ranch/homestead, but it would not be practical for our work, Church, shopping, and in town necessities.

check out flower mound, next door to Lewisville. some great neighborhoods, good police, relatively well managed. a number of good indoor ranges in both L'ville and FM

I'm more of a Tarrant County guy and don't know a ton about Lewisville or Carrollton. And it also depends on your price range. But I'd also look at Coppell, Flower Mound or Bartonville in fairly close proximity. But as I recall Bartonville is more ranchette type properties and pretty pricey. Grapevine/Southlake in Tarrant County too, but also more pricey, especially Southlake which is pretty high end only and exclusive.

All smart folks are moving to Cowtown at the rate of a thousand a week. Best get here while you can.

Yall got a nice Walmart over there. That was the big outing at Runaway Bay.

If that ain't a red flag, I don't know what is.

Runaway Bay has 1 stop. You don’t need anything else. Back when Wise county was dry that store was a real money maker.

The big thing is stay out of Dallas. They dont have enough money to pay the cops but they find plenty to tear down the statues of their old democrat kinfolks. What kinda crack do they smoke?

There ya go. They have everything a normal person might need except when Mama wants to got to Decatur to the Walmart store and hobnob with upper class folks. I used to bump into old pals from Jacksboro who come to buy beer at One Stop over Texas back in the 80s. Now looks like Bryson is wet so it aint so far to drive. Have you ever been to see the Wizard?

I grew up in that area. One of my sisters lives in Runaway Bay now, and my folks stay ay Bay Landing.

Small world. I was near the worse salesmen Bay Landing ever seen. lol. That period of life was a hoot. Finally graduated up to selling lake lots at Richland Chambers. This real salesman pal of mine from Pep TX finally confessed one day.."Boy you couldnt sell *ussy one a troop train." He carried a lump on aluminum in his pocket which he said what was all that was left of his crop duster airplane. The Warden made us a good living selling timeshare across the sreet. She did several hat tricks which is three sales in one day at 1800 per pop. They kept me around to keep her from jumping ship. Sales is a funny business. We love it down there. Dont make me show all my fishing pics thanks.

When were you a Bay Landing salesman? My family joined back in the mid 80’s.
