Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas

Here, you’ll find the convenience of a big city at much more affordable prices. The median monthly housing cost is around $1,414 for those homeowners who have a mortgage, $554 for those who are debt-free, and $990 for those who only wish to rent.

Health care is also available at the UT Southwestern Medical Center, as well as the Baylor University Medical Center. One of the advantages of living here is that you’ll have plenty of sports events you can watch live and many top sports teams, like the Cowboys, Mavericks, Rangers, and Stars.

    I live in Florida and it is still slow and easy if you move into the right smaller cities and rural
    areas. There are some great small towns close by to larger areas. Prices are lower, traffic is
    not a problem and local governments work for the residents.

    Consider small cities as Mulberry, Bartow, Fort Meade, Dade City, Lake City, Plant City,
    Cedar Key, Wauchula, Sebring, Lake Placid, and many others. Many of these small towns
    have a good quality of living. Florida living does not necessarily meaning the “household
    name” communities.

    I live in SWFL and see a large influx of people coming in, it is straining resources. Sarasota is growing UP with a lot of tall buildings so even more people are moving into that space going up and out. It’s always a good idea to check the local resources, quality of water and pros and cons before committing. I’ve been in Florida since 1988 and it’s not slow and easy anymore. So many more people adds cars, traffic, more animal casualties and more pollution. Less wide open spaces to roam.
