re: The DFW metroplex is fascinating to me

Idk I’m not the biggest fan of Atlanta but it doesn’t feel nearly as bland and boring as Dallas.

The suburbs are bland and boring. That’s their nature.

Dallas is anything but bland/boring, especially close to downtown. Downtown, the Arts District, Hardwood/Klyde Warren, Deep Ellum, Lower Greenville, Knox-Henderson, Uptown/Turtle Creek, Park Cities/SMU, Trinity Groves, Lakewood/White Rock … all have immense and distinct character.

On the Fort Worth side, I’ll challenge you to find a more kickass area in another city than Clearfork Main. Neiman’s, Louis Vitton, etc. with pastures of longhorn cattle next door.

You’ve also got the Stockyards/Northside area, full of incredible history and modern/$$$ cool shite.

DFW is the 4th largest metro in the nation. It’s f’n massive. Yeah, the bedroom communities are all function over form, but that’s the nature of them anywhere. What Long Island is to NYC.
