Arlington

Arlington, TX, has many advantages and minimal disadvantages. There's something in this city for everyone. Sports fans, warm weather appreciators, adrenaline junkies, scholars, and everything else in between will find a welcoming community waiting for them with open arms. Arlington's stellar location means you'd be between Dallas and Fort Worth. In the unlikely case that you can't find what you're looking for here, you're a short drive away from either of these major cities. But if the Dallas Cowboys and Texas Rangers deem Arlington good enough to be their home, odds are you will, too. Plus, if you get bored, you can get in your car and have the thrill of your life at Six Flags Over Texas. Not only is there plenty to do here, but it's also affordable. The cost of living in Arlington is below the national average. With good schools and a strong economy, it's the perfect place to raise a family. If you're planning to go back to school, the University of Texas has some of the best programs in both business and engineering. All in all, Arlington does it all and does it well. Its mild winters and hot summers are perfect for a life outdoors (if you're the type).
