It's simple, Dallas for the food

chirocoug

4/23/14 3:05pm

but the Mexican food is much better in PHX

TXSmith

4/23/14 3:06pm

Possibly. But I can't imagine it's any better than in the South or San Antonio.

I respectfully disagree...Sonoran food for me

TXSmith

4/23/14 3:10pm

don't forget about the BBQ

Jake72

there is truth there...unless you like pig

TXSmith

4/23/14 3:15pm

No way mexican food is better than El Ranchito

chirocoug

4/23/14 3:17pm

For the number of Mexicans in Phoenix, the food is actually disappointing.

RealComfortableJeans

4/23/14 3:38pm

This is the honest truth

Jake72

4/23/14 3:10pm

The food is much better in Dallas, no doubt

Texas, for all the reasons you spelled out

Gonna have to say Dallas. BM if you want to chat more.

Dallas has a much stronger economy if you are considering

I'm originally from PHX, so if AZ I would go far North PHX or Gilbert....but

Dallas has a better economy, but I prefer Gilbert climate and quality of life

mosterlow

4/23/14 3:08pm

Frisco/Mckinney are good areas

coastercrazy

4/23/14 3:21pm

Both great options, but budget for elective surgery if choosing Gilbert.

RealComfortableJeans

4/23/14 3:40pm

Dallas might be more heavy on elective surgery

shottyj77

4/23/14 3:58pm

No question both places are easy on the eyes

110 in PHX is more comfortable than 90 in Dallas.

My only problem with PHX is that it cools down to 105 at night

shottyj77

4/24/14 9:24pm

No way. Maybe Houston. MAYBE.
