Too funny, this is my back yard too...was SO much better back in the late 70's early 80's. Now it's bad there, too crowded, bad elements, nothing really to do, hot as hell, etc...

I went to Pope, Shack, and then Lamar (class of 88)...in fact my mom taught at
Pope too. I remember when Cooper was a 2 lane road, and we used to cruise it! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

As for where to move, N. Dallas area isn't too bad, but IMHO Austin is the place to be.

Also great place in regards to finding work w/ pretty good pay plus being able to keep most of it due to paying low taxes (esp. if living in apt - no prop tax).

Make sure you know how to speak Spanglish - it helps!
