If someone says Dallas is boring that's there opinon.. You can't debate that.... People have found Miami LA NYC to be overrated and boring... If u have lots of fun in Dallas that's great.. But I do have 3 friends from Dallas there naitives they live here in Atlanta and there African American males.. They too say there is nothing exciting about Dallas and they were waiting to get away.. They also said there isn't much of a scene for African Americans.. He said most of to AA always end up going to Houston.. Another note is people also are visual people .. And I could see why people would say they think Dallas would be boring. Why because unlike Miami, there aren't any world known nightlife districts in Dallas... The media for reason ignores the vibrancy of Dallas.... The only thing the makes me think of Dallas is the cowboys.. I don't know what else it's known for... I'm from Miami and trust I only visit on holiday weekends.. I myself would never live back in Miami and I never recommended anyone to live there... I would probably recommend. Dallas over Miami if I knew what the person was looking for.. But if I had to choose either Dallas county or Dade county and those werethe only too places to choose from it would be Dade county.... For these reason Job nightlife shopping and my culture is heavily represented there..
I guess that explains why Dallas gained more blacks than Houston in the last 10 years.

Let me clarify... I was talking about Nightlife I wasnt talking about in Living terms or migration terms , The african american Gay and straight scene far as hip hop urban clubs is alot better in Houston than Dallas. Thats what Im referring too... Living wise and job wise they both seem too be on the same page in that Dept

I can't see people traveling from around the world wanting just too see a stadium.Now I can give u a list of things as too why people would travel from around the world to visit Miami. I don't need a six flags or theme if I do Orlando is right up the road.. Please let's not get into cultural attractions and things to do I would not want to wipe the floor with that topic...Now to u no city in the south can compare to Dallas... In anything... Now I'll give Dallas about 7 or 8 years u will be wanting to move somewhere else.....
People do travel around the world to see the largest domed statdium in the world, the stadium is sooo beautiful. Dallas-Fort Worth is a place to live, Miami is a place to visit. That's why Dallas-Fort Worth is the 4th largest metro in the USA and it is the fast growing metro.

This is all so subjective.

I would be inclined to say that Dallas has better nightlife because I like raves/trance/dance/electronica and their clubs. That stuff is alot better in Dallas than Houston or Atlanta. Its obviously biggest in Miami.

Now am I going to say that because Dallas' nightlife is more geared to my taste than Atlanta or Houston its more fun overall? No.

Youre making a specific suggestion and trying to draw a broad conclusion.
