The realtor is coming today to look at our house for a client. It makes me wonder how we will make the decision if we need to go quicker than we plan. We are going to try to make it through the school year. It would be difficult to go before, for obvious reasons. There are some things we could do to finish out the school year...but that's another discussion! There are so many questions that come up when you finally decide to take that leap. It's difficult enough when it's within the same state....moving across country makes it even more so! I decided to make a chart! Maybe when it's all down in front of me I'll see which way to urge us to go?
Compare Cities: Frisco, TX - Keller, TX

The education systems are both excellent. Graduation statistics are similar. Keller is closer to Ft. Worth. Frisco is closer to Dallas. Both offer plenty of outdoor activities. Frisco is closer to Tracy's friends. Keller is closer to family. Keller is a much smaller town - plus's and minus's. Frisco more population possible offers more job opportunities? Large shopping areas in Frisco. Small town shopping in Keller. Slightly higher cost of living in Frisco over Keller. Both are showing similar numbers on religious values (i.e. people who attend church on a regular basis) and political stance. So, looking at this list, it appears that it's just a question of how we picture our lives in the future. Tracy and I have differing views based on where we are from. I was brought up on 11 acres in the middle of nowhere....Tracy was brought up in Los Angeles. Somehow we will figure out the fit....boy it's difficult!
