It is true, the small towns around FTW are growing fairly fast. Home building has slowed way down this past couple of years though. I live on a lake just S/W of FTW and we use to get lots of lookers on the weekends just driving through the neighborhood. Now hardly any. There are several nice homes for sale in the area but retirees are holding on to what little money they have left after loosing most of it in the stock market. I don't look for a turn around anytime soon.......if ever again. I think that the USA as we once knew it, suburbea, has gone by the way side. By that I mean affordable housing is not to be had. Lower class dwellers are in apartments. Any new house building is in the over $200,000+ range and way up from that. There is lots of property to be had in the DFW area. FTW is a mixed bag of white in some upper class areas to black and then hispanic in the other areas. Lots of people from the 'old country' down south of the boarder. I know that everyone needs a place to live. I am just glad that my time on earth is nearly over and the rat race is heading for the checkered flag.
