Dallas Basics

Like many other cities, Dallas was originally settled because of its proximity to a river.In this case, the Trinity River. The older sections of Dallas abut the winding Trinity and originally supported both the oil and cotton industries, but the city now is a center for telecommunications, finance, computer technology and transportation. Dallas is known for its progressive architecture and soaring glass towers but combines old and new architecture in a way that truly works.

Doin’ Dallas

Big D, as Dallas is commonly called, does do things big. The State Fair of Texas is one of the largest type gatherings in the world with everything from agricultural showings to carnival rides. The Cotton Bowl stadium is not only famous for its annual bowl game but for many large college games during the football season.

The Dallas Cowboys play in Irving, Texas, which is just a short distance away. Public parks, golf courses and White Rock Lake provide an enormous amount of time for outdoor pursuits within easy proximity to most neighborhoods. Shopping is plentiful with older village type centers as well as massive malls.  So, wherever you end up renting an apartment will be close to local attractions and conveniences.

Around Dallas

Dallas apartments can be found in nearly every configuration depending on your interests.  The downtown area has undergone huge revitalization and is now a center for arts and artists.  Older buildings house loft conversions are found on brick paved streets that at one time heard the clank of wheels bringing cotton to market.

Nearby is the Oaklawn/Turtle Creek where there is a dense mix of rental apartments, condos, restaurants, clubs and shopping. Highland Park is home to SMU and a great place to find a Dallas rental just as is the older East Dallas and Lakewood areas where apartments are mixed side by side with Prairie style and Victorian homes.

Whatever Dallas rental apartment you decide on will be close to great restaurants and nightlife. Downtown, the French Room of the Adolphus Hotel is rated the top restaurant in the country by Zagats.

Barbeque and Tex-Mex are the mainstays of Dallas dining and arguments about which restaurants are best is an old Dallas sport.  Nightclubs also come in all shapes and fashions. Many Mexican restaurants incorporate live music to make a dining experience more festive.

The Deep Ellum area of downtown has long been home to some of the best blues in the country. Country and Western dance halls are easy to find as well.  North Dallas has the best concentration of dining and music. You’ll be zipping from your Dallas apartment to the best eating and drinking within no time.
