Why You’ll Love Living in Frisco
Frisco is built for everyone, this includes everyone from retirees looking to enjoy a nice walk in the park all the way to young adults looking to meet others and socialize. Frisco has been deemed a “mini Dallas” due to its rise in fun events, high-end clubs and social spots, and of course the stronger than ever presence of sports. Frisco holds not one but three hubs for professional sports teams: The Star holds the Dallas Cowboys, Toyota Stadium holds the FC Dallas Soccer Team, and Riders Field holds The Frisco Roughriders baseball team. Almost every weekend out of the year you have an opportunity to go see a professional team in action, this is a luxury alot of major cities don’t even have. There are a ton of other ways to have fun as well, listening to live music at the Revel, going bowling and playing games at multiple locations like Main Event, Pinstack or Dave & Busters, or even learning a bit of history at the National Videogame Museum or The National Soccer Hall of Fame. With all these options, there will not be a day that goes by with nothing to do in Frisco Texas.
Homes in Frisco
Frisco consists of about 70,000 homes, most of which are recently built with a modern artistic feel. The beauty of newer homes is they are designed with features most people are accustomed to now, open floor plans, high ceilings and a ton of technological add-ons you won’t find in homes older that 10 years. If modern isn’t your style, there are definitely still areas like the Frisco Square that consist of older, more antique-style homes.
Some of the homes in areas surrounding areas like The Star have really been built to speak for themselves, in Frisco it’s rare to find homes with a lot of land, but for a pretty penny you can definitely find some that suit your spacious vision.
