I’d avoid oak cliff. I don’t know Dallas well


North Oak Cliff is one of the most desirable in town areas of Dallas. You'll pay 350k for a 3/1 400 for a 3/2 and pushing a million for larger houses in Kessler Park. The area around Kiest park is an up and coming area and still affordable (275k) for young people and very safe. I have a single female friend that has lived over there for 7 or 8 years with zero problems. The bad areas of Oak Cliff are way south around Camp Wisdom and red bird mall or east of I-35 near the zoo.

You both can be right

Oak Cliff, located in Southwestern area of Dallas, TX (also known as The OC, O.C.T., and The Cliff). It's famous for it's regular local news coverage due to violent crimes and acts of poverty, but this is a huge misrepresentation. While there are parts of Oak Cliff where looking at the wrong person in the wrong way will get you beat up, stabbed, or shot, overall it's an okay place to live.

Haven't those areas cooled off a bit? Not that it would be a bad thing for a potential home buyer, necessarily.
