Rating 4.13 out of 5 971 reviews
Plano, Texas, is a vibrant and rapidly growing city located in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area. It consistently ranks as one of the safest cities in the United States, offering a strong sense of security for residents and visitors. The Plano Independent School District (PISD) is highly regarded, providing excellent public education. The city boasts an extensive park system, a wide range of shopping centers, and a diverse culinary scene. With top-notch healthcare facilities and numerous corporate headquarters, Plano offers ample job opportunities and a business-friendly environment. The diverse and multicultural community, along with various cultural events and festivals, adds vibrancy to the city.
I've lived here in Plano for about 4 year, I very much like the neighborhood it's nice and quite and very close to everything I need, and about 15 minutes from my school (UTD). The city is a bit strict and picky regarding lawn care which is a bit annoying. It also takes the city quite a long to get the roads fixed, when I first moved here the same parts of Coit rd was under construction for about a year, and now its Parker. Overall the city is great!
I've spent the vast majority of my life living in Plano and there are plenty of positive aspects of residing in the area including the city being very family-oriented, copious amounts of job opportunities abound plus an increasing variety of activities to engage in during one's free time. All in all, Plano could improve in regards to the overall cost of living because it's become increasingly more expensive to live comfortably in the city. In comparison to most locales, I can hastily recommend living in Plano because there's something in town for everyone regardless of background.
