I saw Little Elm on a episode of Forensic Files.I think it was about an off duty police officer being found dead.

Frisco residents would die if they knew you compared Frisco to Little Elm. Little Elm has a few beautiful lake houses but overall it's Frisco's trashy little brother. Definitely not the same soccer mom types.

Bro no one wants to live in Frisco anymore unless youre muslim. Little Elm has its nice parts and bad parts like everywhere else, but overall it's a nice quiet little lake town with an awesome rec area where they put on some fun family events.

No although I have lived in both Plano and Frisco in the past.

Little Elm has its moments like the Waters Edge Cafe but it's just a notch above The Colony.

We aren't very far from Little Elm. Far enough away for property values, close enough for a quick run to their liquor store.

ETA the cop died.
