Pick Your City by Your Commute
Most relocations start with an offer letter, not a city. Start from where you'll work, and I'll show you every city worth shortlisting — with drive times, prices, and schools.
Legacy West
West Plano, TX
The densest concentration of corporate campuses in North Texas — Toyota's North American headquarters, JPMorgan's ~12,000-person campus, Liberty Mutual, and the walkable Legacy West district itself. If your offer letter says Plano, this is almost certainly where you're headed.

Las Colinas
Irving, TX
Eight Fortune 500 headquarters plus Microsoft, Verizon, and Wells Fargo's new 4,500-person campus — all along SH-114 in Irving. Living near Las Colinas means trading a cross-metro commute for lakeside urban living or top-school suburbs ten minutes out.

The Star / Frisco
Frisco, TX
The Dallas Cowboys' headquarters anchors a tollway corridor that now includes the PGA of America, Keurig Dr Pepper, Gearbox, TIAA, and Universal's first kids' theme park. Frisco is a job center in its own right — and its neighbors offer every price point.

Downtown Dallas
Dallas, TX
Banking, law, AT&T's Discovery District campus, and Goldman Sachs' new Dallas hub. Downtown commuters have a secret weapon most of DFW lacks: rail. Two suburbs on this list put you on a train instead of the Tollway.

DFW Airport
DFW International Airport
For consultants, airline professionals, and anyone whose office is a boarding gate, minutes-to-terminal is the metric that matters. These cities keep Monday mornings calm — two are close enough to hear the runway announcements.

TI Sherman
Sherman, TX
Texas Instruments' $30B fab complex (newest fab online December 2025) is pulling semiconductor talent to the US-75 corridor north of McKinney. These Collin County towns give you new-construction value with a reverse commute — and keep the whole DFW metro in reach.
