Please, I politely ask for no flaming, no hostility. I seek information, no more, no less.

As a conservative, as a member of the Republican Party, and as a two-time President Trump voter, I'm curious about how right-leaning it is there. I've visited Flower Mound, Plano, Frisco, Lewisville, Coppell, Carrollton, and liked most of what I saw. Nice houses, nice schools, talked a bit to locals, have done research.

When I speak to people about Texas here in the NY tri-state, people tell me that Texas is "very Republican." Sure, compared to states like NY or NJ or CT or MD, no question.

But I also know for example that there is a Democratic Party presence in Texas, and that some call Texas purple while others forecast it as a blue state in the next few years.

I also know that some areas lean redder and others bluer. Austin, from my limited knowledge, is blue.

I support the Second Amendment, I support law enforcement, I oppose illegal immigration, I abhor critical race theory. These are some of my positions.

I am aware that there are many out of state transplants who live in these Dallas towns and that this is bound to affect local politics. If I move there, I want to keep Texas Texan, not to create a little NYC there.

As such, if I move to any of these towns near Dallas, will I be likelier to:
A) indeed fit in there more than I would here
B) be shockingly disappointed because of how many liberals there are
C) neither, in the sense that Republicans will win elections more often but there is considerable ideological diversity in those towns

?

Thanks very much in advance.

Dallas Northern Burbs have lots of Californians, and more moving there all the time.

However, in the Southern side Midlothian and Waxahacie are more likely to be right-leaning. And probably the western side of the metroplex — a Fort Worth area burb like Weatherford, Granbury or Burleson — is more likely to also be right-leaning.

Of the burbs you listed perhaps Lewisville, I’m not sure. Certainly not Coppell or Flower Mound, Plano or Frisco. Maybe Farmers Branch on the North side.

The traffic in DFW is tough, so we usually make suggestions based on commute and schools, not politics.
