I lived in Amarillo for 2 years and while it is not the most attractive place, the people are awesome. I would gladly live there again and the church was pretty strong if you are LDS. Great place to raise kids

My work is transferring me to one of 4 places in TX. Which place is best?

Wow, you're right. Not the greatest selection. Tough to choose.

start looking for a new job.

I second this

nephicoug

I would have done that as soon as they said Texas.

Dallas/FW and San Antonio are great cities.

LOL - it's only for 1 year, and they have well made it worth my time.

Abilene and Wichita Falls because they're still close to DFW

Abilene: No, no, no, no, no. Did I say "no" enough?

I know, I know. It was difficult to even write it but look at the options I had

Is there one location that has a better upside for you?

JOPE

7/22/14 10:21am

Honestly all 4 are about the same. It will only be for one year

Oh good golly. God bless you.

WDaddy

7/22/14 10:22am

If that's all you have, then 1) Abilene and 2) Wichita Falls 3) Quit

WDaddy

7/22/14 10:22am

Oh please. There are far worse places than those 4.

flyusaf

But that ain't saying much.

Amarillo and Wichita Falls ain't bad.

To be honest, I fly into Amarillo every now and then and go to this really good

flyusaf

You mean Big Texan?!? Puke.

WDaddy

7/22/14 10:31am

No, some place in a Marriot or a Hilton (can't remember which). It's legit.

flyusaf

7/22/14 10:32am

Phew. I was worried for a moment.

WDaddy

7/22/14 10:33am

LOL... so was I.

The airport is the nicest thing in Amarillo...

Smoke Monster

7/22/14 11:06am

Tough but I'd say WF. It's the furthest north without being Amarillo

Amarillo is the only one I've visited. So it would get my vote.

Renocougar

it's the only one I've visited, so it WOULDN'T get my vote

Whichever will give you the best visibility and opportunity to move up and out.

No on Abilene and San Angelo. If you want to be closer to mountains...

ol' Blue Eyes

7/22/14 10:25am

I would go with Amarillo since it's on I-40 making a drive to Utah shorter

Abilene has some good BBQ.

Update - Forgot to add 2 more cities - though they may be bad too.

thebruce

7/22/14 10:36am

I'd rather be in GA for a year

WDaddy

Sounds like you have 2 choices then

I lived in WF during my AF training - lots of transients there because of the AF

Waco has a rich history in religious whack jobs, so there's that.

Oh, but just noticed that's not one of your four choices. Sorry to get your

Amarillo is the closest to a temple.

Wichita Falls. Closest to DFW and not a dump like Abilene. SA is dirty and
