When I visited Dallas with a friend last year, I was impressed by how many cool spots we were able to go to without a car; especially considering we were only there for about a day and a half. Whenever I thought about Texas as a whole, I would always imagine being absolutely stranded without a car even in cities, but taking the DART around was much more pleasant & convenient than I thought.

The Dart, combined with our extensive interconnected bike path system joining all the towns in the metroplex, makes Dallas better for cycling and alternative transportation than practically any other major southern metroplex, and heads and shoulders over Austin, which is choked by too many people and poor infrastructure. I always see people sell DFW short for being “boring” or “car centric”, and it can be if you never seek out the millions of interesting things to do here, and if you never get out of your car. But you can reach many faraway places here with only a bike and train, if you are determined enough, have enough time, and wear enough sunscreen. I am 90% bike-and-train only in day to day life here, and with addition of the Silver Line running east-west all the way to the airport which will dramatically cut down travel times, it will be even easier to choose car-free travel. I wish other major Texas cities would beef up their public transport like Dallas has.

I’ve traveled to many cities around the country in my years, and in my opinion Dallas is one of the nicest big cities I’ve ever been to. There’s not a lot of night life or exciting attractions, but when I went around it I was surprised at how clean, maintained, and how little homeless people there were. The only other big city that I thought was as nice was San Diego. It also had a really nice arts district, and the Uptown/ North Park area was probably the nicest part of a city I’ve ever seen. But I can definitely see why it’s not a huge tourist hotspot, younger people would probably consider it a little boring, but I liked the laid back feel of the city, and it’s considerably good public transport for a U.S. city.

Couple of things to add for the music (hip hop specifically): The Geto Boys put Houston on the map at a time when the south was looked down upon by enthusiasts from the east and west coast. Scarface is one of the GOATS. UGK gave Southern hip hop its own sound. Bun B is a monster on the mic, and Pimp C deserves so much credit for the musical influence he had upon all of Southern hip hop. DJ Screw, the pioneer of the chopped and screwed sound, helped to further solidify the identity of Houston hip hop. Lots of rappers are influenced by his music to this day, as well as musicians from other genres. Great video as always, but I feel that Houston deserves a lot more credit than it gets for how it influenced hip hop.

Your vids are always so solid man. Love them all.

Born and raised in San Antonio, I feel like this city gets left out of much of the talk of the state but its a really quiet and safe place to raise a family for a city ranked 7th largest in the nation. Its not going to win any awards for sheer beauty (unless you like rock quarries) but it has a simple street system to navigate and there is so much development you will never run out of homes or apartments to check out. Best places to live would be the north/ northwest side, followed closely by the hill country north of 1604 and I-281. Those areas range from middle to upper class depending on the subdivision and your proximity to the highways. There are numerous shopping areas like The Rim, La Cantera, North Star Mall, The Alamo Quarry Market and of course the Rivercenter. Overall the city is big and has everything a major city provides but yes... be prepared for the summer heat.
