What areas do younger working crowds stay in Dallas? Hopefully with some nice parks/breweries/trails around. Thanks!

Will be moving to Dallas soon :)

If you want parks / breweries Knox / Henderson is good - closer to white rock. From deep ellum the Santa Fe trail also feeds up into white rock - but that’s more for if you want to bike or do a longer run (lake is 10 miles around, Santa Fe trail I think is 3). Uptown also is right by the Katy trail. Deep ellum is a little more hipster / funky - think live music and art murals. Uptown is more of your classic yuppie area - walkable and clean, almost suburban in feel. I don’t really recommend living downtown - more of a business district and rents are similar to uptown so doesn’t make much sense.

Lower Greenville and Knox / Henderson are also solid!

Either Uptown, Deep Ellum, or Downtown...in that order

Deep ellum is wierd bro! Creepy people with 15 nose rings and white boys with dread locks like the pirates of the Caribbean. It's just creeps me out. It feels like witchcraft lol victory park by the Mavericks stadium or uptown is the real place to be!

Agreed with all of the above (except as an ATXer, I like Deep Ellum; C3 exaggerates).

Added note, EY is in Victory Park, so that neighborhood of uptown is super walkable for you and is attached to the start of the Katy Trail.

Design District has cheaper rents if that’s a big factor for you. West End would be you most walkable downtown place if interested in being near Victory Park

I went to the lease this last weekend. Not one drop of alcohol was had. That was the closest I’ve come to caving. 4 wheelers, killing dinner with big guns, doing manly things in God’s country.

Hey Dallas folks!

I want to get to know the local private companies. I worked at a private company with 2-3k employees before my MBA. They had an amazing culture, but limited progression opportunities. I'm thinking about looking for a smaller company (couple hundred to couple thousand employees) in the Dallas area and looking to find an amazing culture.

Anyone have recommendations on companies with great cultures in the Dallas/north of Dallas areas? (I live in the Plano/Allen/Mckinney area)
