Re: Moving to Texas, need help with CHL questions

On the other hand...

Irving is OK in some parts. Stay away from Oak Cliff and South of I-30 which includes the Fair Park area and other degenerate places. Also, consider the serious traffic congestion 24/7 on Central Expressway (I-45) if you commute to your DT office. At one time the Love Field Airport area and Mockingbird Lane area was "ok" with older settlements.

IMO I don't see any location within an "easy" commute to DT Dallas. You could also think about the "Mid Cities" area (e.g., Arlington, Grand Prairie, etc.)...still a commute.

FYI, Central Expressway was "obsolete" as soon as it was built. They will never get it up to speed to handle all the serious traffic since it goes right through major business/industrial, etc., areas.

Dallas traffic is a nightmare (but probably not as bad as Houston).

Good luck and welcome to Tejas as soon as you can get here..."Y'all take care now...ya hear?"

I fixed the only error I saw. I know it's a small point, but it could make a major difference to someone who does not know the area and is just looking at a map.
