    :rolleyes: That median home price would buy you an average home in the valley here in LA. I used to date a girl from Southlake back in the late 80s early 90s. Her family owned a daycare center near the middle of town. Right next to a BBQ I believe. There was hardly anything out there back then.

    yep, nothing really started until the mid-90's. city completely changed from life time residents on small farms to large new homes on 1-2 acre lots. Jennie and I were attracted to it for the same reason as everyone else, few places within commute of both Dallas and Ft. Worth that you can buy a home on a large lot. Helps the public school is highly rated and football team (which I give rats ass about) has been ranked #1 in nation for several of the past years.

    Most of Texas is a great value for real estate, one reason we haven't been hit as hard by the crash. Southlake real estate has actually appreciated each of last 2 years.

    Check out how much home you get for the money down from me...

    Oddly no towns in the PNW. I guess we are all mountaineers and fisherman, eh?

    Didn't make top 25 on that list (we usually do).

    But we are #8 on the "Best Places To Live" list (which is probably more important)!

    Looking at pictures of some of these towns makes me want to get out and travel some more.

    I have been to Cali (don't like, too much traffic) texas, idaho, wyoming, new mexico, arizona, oklahoma, colorado, and some others that I cannot think of right now. I really didnt like any of them. Chicago was one of my favorites.

    Whats it like in CT? How are the ladies?
