it has everything you and your family need and in the next 5 years it will be the home of the cowboys and have 2 more HUGE developments with shopping, upscale apartments and nice restaurants

FRISCO ISD just had an article in the paper where it was recognized as one of the best in the nation because of its practice of small schools and classroom sizes

there is a reason Frisco and Prosper are 2 of the fastest growing communites in the country, they are worth it.

dont listen to that guy

I dont think you can lump Frisco and Prosper together. Yes, I know they are right next to each other but they are COMPLETELY different cities.

Frisco is a booming mini-urban city whereas Prosper is growing fast but still very small. Frisco has skyscrapers along the 121 corridor whereas Prosper will never approach that level of development.

People who live in Frisco are very different from the people who live in Prosper. People who choose Frisco want access to lots of amenities in a short distance and dont mild large hustle/bustle of an urban environment.

People who choose Prosper want a small town feel. Frisco is NOT a small town type of feeling.

As a long time resident, I remember Hwy 121 as a 2-lane blacktop with massage parlors along the sparsely populated area. Frisco was not more than a trailer park and gas station. Funny how things change over time.

Agreed.While Frisco is a great option,it should not be compared to Prosper.Frisco is on its way to be a bustling mega city with close to 300,000 people.Prosper will remain a town with a build out of close to 60,000.I think they get compared due to location.There is alot more to Prosper than what you see driving past on 380....
