Weatherford, TX (Fort Worth, Howe, Mart: houses, schools, to live)

[lone sailor]

So tell me a little about Weatherford Texas. I already know Parker County is dry, so we don't need to go down that path. However, I've also been considering Peaster and Whitt areas as relocation possibilities. Let me know the good, the bad and the ugly. Thanks in advance.

I also just realized I put this in the Fort Worth area, not the general Texas section. I'm on a roll today.

It needs to be in the Fort Worth section as Weatherford is considered in the Fort Worth area.

Here is a little info about Weatherford:

Weatherford is a nice and fast growing suburb of Fort Worth thay has really come a long ways in the last few years. I personally have not been to Weatherford very much, but a few people in our office live in the Weatherford/Aledo area and they talk about it a lot. There is a lo of new shopping and restaurant choices as many shopping centers have popped up along I-20. The schools are good and there is a bunch of new housing developments there with some really nice houses. It's family-oriented and very close to Fort Worth. Hope this helps!

I have lived in Weatherford for about 5 months. It is a nice small town. There are alot of nice stores and eating areas. My kids go to Peaster ISD, they seem to be doing well. The housing is reasonable. I think you could probably get a good deal right now. My husband drives about 45 minutes to work, but says it is worth it to beable to live out here away from the big city and traffic.

Weatherford definitely has traffic. Hwy 51 in front of Wal-Mart and all the way to that shopping center with Target, Best Buy, etc. is a mess and is going to get even worse as more growth comes.

With the traffic, I was talking more on my husbands drive to work. He has not once got stuck in traffic

Oh ok, I thought you meant in Weatherford. Ya I-20 runs pretty smoothly into Fort Worth.
