Great value
Let me first state that I moved here from California. I was born & raised in Southern CA (my folks are Texans) and lived briefly ('03 - '06) in Northern CA. It goes without saying that nearly everything is cheaper here. Houses are cheaper, groceries, gas, taxes and probably a few more things I can't think of now. Houses range from $150K to the millions, $200K to $300 will net you a pretty decent home with a lot of bells and whistles. There's not much in the way of scenic views. I grew up in the shadow of the San Bernardino Mountains (yeah, the ones that burned), but honestly half the time you couldn't see them because of the smog/haze. Here there are definitely more trees and open spaces. The city of Flower Mound seems to have their act together. There are miles of city trails and tons of parks. The schools are very highly rated and local Marcus High School has a top notch band and football program.
