Cities
If DFW is new, start by comparing cities.
Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Allen, Prosper, Celina, Anna, and Dallas. Same metro. Different Saturdays, different drives, different tax bills.
Dallas
Not one market. Dozens.
People who want a neighborhood with a name, not a master-plan brochure.
Plano
Established streets. A shorter hop south.
Buyers who want resale inventory, corporate proximity, and a city that is already built out.
Frisco
Growth, sports, and two different eras of houses.
Families shopping Frisco ISD, sports, and a mix of new construction and teenage neighborhoods.
McKinney
A real downtown, and a city still adding to itself.
People who want a town square on Saturday and a newer house on the tour list.
Prosper
Newer, further north, lifestyle communities.
Buyers who want space, new construction, and amenities like Windsong Ranch’s lagoon.
Allen
The settled middle between Plano and McKinney.
Buyers who want established neighborhoods and Allen ISD without starting over on a construction site.
Celina
The northern edge. New rooftops, longer drives.
Buyers priced out of Frisco who still want new construction and a planned community.
Anna
Further out. Early. Worth understanding.
First-time and new-construction buyers who care more about payment than being close in.
