As the hub of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, the City of Dallas is known as “Big D” by those who call it home. Boasting a low cost of living and one of the nation’s most enviable economies, Dallas welcomes a steady stream of relocating employees to its booming housing market. Financial World magazine ranks Dallas as one of the “best managed” cities in the nation, and Fortune magazine hails Dallas one of the top 10 “Best Cities for Business.” The constant stream of accolades is not surprising. Cosmopolitan and sophisticated, Dallas also preserves the warmth, friendliness, and relaxed atmosphere of the Old West. Country music harmonizes with rock and roll, cowboy boots step beside Gucci shoes, and international corporations work beside entrepreneurs.

Whether your interest lies in Beethoven or the Dallas Cowboys, the city is filled with world-class venues that showcase everything from professional sports to theatre, symphony, ballet, and opera. Fine museums, art galleries, science museums, a glittering nightlife, and the largest downtown Arts District in America are just beyond the front door in Dallas. Crowning this cultural treasure are the jewels of magnificent historic architecture in area cathedrals and churches. Students of nature can visit the Dallas Zoo, Old City Park, or the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens. The city maintains 337 public parks covering nearly 50,000 acres with outstanding recreational facilities, while lakes and reservoirs as well as lush state parks are available close to home. Sprawling malls beckon shoppers to prestigious retailers, entertainment centers, and tempting eateries. From quiet, tidy neighborhoods to majestic manors in estate enclaves, Dallas can bring every dream into bold reality.
