It's still a suburb. |

What's your point? The orginal poster has stated he's interested in a small city.

The Rangers can't fill their ballpark because no one wants to make that drive to Arlington and back...so you might consider that!
Just move to Dallas and save all the headaches, stress and gasoline.

Because there is no stress in a city with 187 murders last year...
I guess we'll see how many people make the drive out to Arlington to see the Cowboys play once they are there alongside the Rangers.

I glad the Dallas Cowboys are building their new stadium out in Arlington.
Now, perhaps, some of the Arlington residents who are crowding my downtown Dallas office will be able to find gainful employment closer to home.  |

How so? I've heard that Dallas' suburbs tend to be more conservative and a little more posh. Is that at all true? Please explain. |

Think of Dallas as the last outpost of the South and Fort Worth as the first outpost of the West. It's not all cut a dry, but there's definately a more "Old South" feel to Dallas and a more "Old West" feel to Fort Worth.

I searched the Fort Worth forum and found some threads about Arlington. Here's one:
http://www.city-data.com/forum/fort-...ight=Arlington
I would try a search over there.
A little help for the Moderator please: Should this thread be in the Fort Worth forum instead of Dallas??
Thanks,

Probably, since Arlington is in Tarrant County and Fort Worth is the county seat of Tarrant County..  |
