    No, everyone from the s-holes in NE, East and West Coasts, and the larger metro cities, don't move to Granbury. You'll mess it up, just like I did when I moved from San Jose CA to Buda, Austin, and Georgetown. These vids need to emphasize the Cons so the weak-minded, opinionated types won't move to Granbury.

    We're 5 years or so from being able to move there, but Pecan and De Cordova are the two we're really focusing on. Glad I found this vid and your others. Question......from Pecan, wouldn't what I call the back way to Dallas, i.e., taking FM 4 to 67 in Cleburne, be just as fast or faster than De Cordova? Also I see some lots for sale in Pecan, but heard in one of your other vids that there's a moratorium on wastewater. I'd consider buying a lot now and building later, but don't want to have issues. Would we be impacted? Thanks!

  • @LivinginGranbury
    @LivinginGranburyАй бұрын

    Hey there! So, from back gate, you are actually closer to Dallas, but further from Fort Worth. The lots in Pecan are using AMUD water. The Moratorium applies only to city water (homes inside the city limits), so Pecan is not affected. Note: there are a few areas in Pecan where you will need to get Septic (the Ranches for example.) Most of the Lots are AMUD water, and AMUD sewer. That is something I can check on for you.

    Granbury sucks, it has terrible schools that are politically motivated. The County judges brother got busted with lots of cocaine and it got swept under the rug. Corruption among the police remain rampant. Organized crime is rampant in this county also. The lake has high levels of bacteria in the water and it smells very bad. Bunch of rich kids running around high on drugs all of the time. Pulled over by police multiple times a day for no reason.

There is a lot of houses for sale under 200k with a lot of land. There is not many Latinos 90% is white people. The only thing I would is if there is a Sam’s club near by.

    Stephenville is the only location you get all the free beer you can drink. It was bc the city counsel wouldnt give them a liquor license. So give it out for free. My grandma said once ,"i think i want a beer". Me and my brother raced to the beer stand to get her one. Im a Delta Z at Tarleton. Fun fact you can get 4 academic scholarships and stack them up. I worked as a homework grader and pharmacy tech in college. My parents have 4 horses and 2 donkeys. Quit being a wuss. I drove 2 hrs to go out in Dallas all the time. Had to be at work at 10am. It was so fun and i dont regret it.

    :::News flash:::be careful about your expectations for ‘quality’ health care in Granbury. My family have lived in Granbury since the early 80’s and the only reason some of them are still alive is because of proximity to health care services in Fort Worth. As far as Granbury’s conservative credentials go, there are people from the area that were prominent players in the insurrection and Oath Keepers/Proud Boys. And no state income tax translates into high sales taxes and high property taxes, so ‘no state income tax’ isn’t all that it’s made out to be. I lived in Granbury for several years. It makes me sick to even drive through that town. You can keep it.

    Im retiring from the Air Force next year, and will be moving to either Granbury or Weatherford areas. Im looking online and it seems tough to get a newish upgraded house (or new construction) with a decent sized yard for under $350k. What areas/neighborhoods should I look for a $300-$350k budget, within 40 min to Lockheed Martin in Fort Worth. Granbury is my preference, been there several times, I’m conservative and looking for a safe conservative area. Thanks.

  • @LivinginGranbury

    Good question! The closer you are to the end of the canal, the more bugs/mosquitoes there will be. The closer to the main body of the lake, the more wind there typically is, and therefore less mosquitoes. It doesn't stink on the canals that I show in the video, and it is not typical. There are canals around Granbury, that left untended, can become unwieldy and smell. But those are not typically found in these neighborhoods.

    Good video, and some useful information. But, with no intent to demean the many fine people that i'm sure live in Granbury, let me point out to future viewers that Granbury is getting quite a reputation for being an extremely conservative town, politically. Hostile book bans in the Granbury schools have made headlines throughout Texas. And so that could be a problem for adults with children. On the other hand, Granbury isn't alone in this behavior. Other metroplex bedroom communities have had similar problems. As for the adjacent lake, it's probably okay, but lakes in north Texas are fairly ubiquitous; I'm not sure that any given lake is that much better than any other lake.
