Rent initially, so this will be temporary
If I were mid-20's and looking to rent I'd stay the hell out of the suburbs. Unless you just really like chain restaurants and getting a jump start on travel ball teams. I'd start by deciding if y'all are Ft Worth or Dallas people and go from there. Most of our guys in your situation seem to live in or near DT Fort Worth.

This is correct. You want to look at Lower Greenville, Victory Park, Uptown, Knox Henderson, the Village area. Avoid anything near Deep Ellum.
Best advice is to contact Smart City Apartment Locators ( LINK) and they will help you find the right place. Give them your budget, area, preferences, ask for advice, and they will get you a list of places that fit and they usually have a hookup on deals. They work primarily with the nicer apartments so you don't have to deal with crap. All of their agents are in their 20s too so they prob have the same preferences. It's completely free to use. I've used them in all 3 of my moves and was very happy with the work they did. All of my friends use them too.

I'd also just rent the cheapest/smallest 1 bedroom apartment in a nice area while you get to know the surrounding areas before making an informed decision.
I was a bit older and with kids so looking for different things, but I got a job out here, so I rented an apartment for 6 months while my wife and kids didn't join me, since it was such short term. From there, I got to know the area, as the wife/kids came out probably 3-4 times in that 6 months so she got to know the area too.
