Depends- how much are you willing to spend?

If you are looking for good quality, but save some money I’d say Keller or North Fort Worth. They have good schools and quality hospitals, they’re just a bit rural. Plus it’s far from Dallas, but I used to commute a lot and always made it within 1 hour to my office down town.

If you’re looking at Keller I’d also look at trophy club

The good hospitals is an odd criteria. You’re 20 minutes within top specialty care in every category and much closer to emergency services no matter where you choose.

If you’re looking for more upscale, Southlake or Preston Hollow are nice.

Schools are good until high school in Frisco and plano .. most public schools are now lacking good teaching in high school level ( can u imagine 13 high schools in Frisco and all the good teachers had to spread out ) .. they are designed well for to top 10 percent of students only .. if you can afford private school that is good like st marks or hockaday ( depending on gender of one’s kid ) that is better route .. think of living closer to highland park too
