New part of Grand Prairie off of the toll, the nicer side of Arlington, or Mansfield, las colinas/Irving.

like

I think Carrollton could be a good spot, try to stay near the toll way and you’re ok.

However, from personal experience, I’d rather pick a place I like closer to either spot, being half way doesn’t help as much.

like

Carrollton is 45 minutes to an hour from Fort Worth. Try Las Colinas.

Depends on where in Fort Worth. If it’s downtown, I’d go with Arlington/Grand Prairie.

like

Grapevine or Irving (Valley Ranch or Las Colinas). Maybe Grand Prairie and Arlington. Note: Las Colinas apartments are nicer and newer than Valley Ranch.

If you commute, sunup/sundown is horrid to drive to/from Dallas. I’d never live west of where i work again if i have a highway drive.

I was in Bedford driving to Dallas for several months.

Grapevine may be an option, depending on the exact locations for each.

Probably las Colinas or Irving area

Look at HEB areas or North Arlington. Right in the middle between Dallas and Fort Worth. Also i’m a licensed realtor if you need help looking! :)
