I live in Frisco, north of Dallas, and love it. There are many pilots and other professionals here. Plano, Coppell, Trophy Club, Prosper, and others around here are great, as well. Schools are great.

I agree, you can live in an apartment for a year, get your wife situated, and then decide where you want to buy or build. (Or not, your call.) If your wife is working a M-F workweek, I would think her location would be of a greater bearing than if you drive 20 minutes or 40 minutes each way, once a week.

Commute times vary depending on rush hour or not. Assume you will try to time it to avoid peak times. If you hit rush hour, 20 minutes can become 45-60 minutes, as you would expect. My drive time to DFW parking non rush hour is 20 minutes. They are widening the toll roads all over the metro area.

Incidentally, neighbors less than a mile away from me are the Dallas Cowboys QB and RB.
