Apartments in the Cityline area

Hello, I am planning to move to Dallas this year. I am married and in my thirties. I have been looking for walkable mixed used neighborhoods. I got to visit some of the apartments in the cityline area recently. I liked a couple of them. But the Google reviews on some of these have been really interesting. Eg: I was quoted the highest rent at The Register apartments where they showed us a lot of amenities. But on Google people say their amenities are broken most of the time and that the apartment has a pest/roach problem (with pictures).

Does anyone have any experience with the register/ other apartments in cityline area?

I am also curious if these apartments are primarily used by students. We would prefer to live in a non student housing area among mostly families.

What's going on at Berkner?

Just drove down Yale and it's clogged up with parents lining up by the athletic building. There were signs for Standard Parent Reunification, like how parents get their kids after an emergency. Lots of security out there. Any news?

RISD Principal

I do not believe this is acceptable for a principal. Thoughts? The blonde is the principal at Parkhill Jr High.

Valentines Day Ideas PLEASE

I am looking to treat my girlfriend of 3 years to a nice restaurant and/or experience near Richardson/Dallas. She is a pescatarian that likes sushi, pasta, and most pescetarian food except mushrooms and eggs. She likes museums and vintage stores. However, we always like to try new experiences. I am a college student so my budget is around $100 I would say, I could do more if it is really awesome. All ideas would be helpful, THANKS!

Looking for English tutor

My fiancé, whose first language is Spanish, is interested in taking English classes. We're looking for someone who's willing to sit down with her twice a week during her lunch break for private lessons.

Preferably, we need someone with teaching experience who also speaks Spanish.

Would appreciate any advice! TIA

Can anyone recommend good safe and pest free apartments near Dallas, Richardson area?

My budget is 1200$. Moving there from Boston for new job.
I am just majorly concerned about few things:

  1. I dont know which areas to avoid and which areas have good safe gated communities.
  2. I am really really scared of pests; roaches nd rats. I can tolerate 1-2 cockroaches but not a fully infested apartment of roaches and rats. So that is a requirement.
  3. I just. graduated from college so I didnt have a car back in boston. So atleast for a few months i would like to be in an area where i can use transit from. May that be dart or buses. I dont mind even traveling for 40-45 mins. Would def prefer nearer apartments though, but just mentioning.

my office is at cityline area, but the apartments there i saw were starting at 1400 minimum. I can atmax with all the other fees included do 1300$.

Can people please please help me and recommend some good apartments int his range and also areas/apartments to specifically avoid??

It would be a huge help.

Where is the best place to purchase feta cheese in richardson?

Really, we go through it a lot and costs add up. Sometimes Aldi's has a decent sale, and Costco is always an alternative.

But any place nearby? Looking for recomendations!

TV reception with OTA antenna reception

Hi, we finally cut the cord from overpriced Spectrum TV & Internet and switched over to ATT's fiber 1g Internet service. We just replaced a few TVs to Toshiba Fire TV's and so far one OTA antenna that's sitting on top of one.

We're unable to catch Fox4 local channel. I can get the streaming Fox news but not OTA Fox4 shows, sports. Is anyone able to recieve it and if so, what antenna (or service) did you rely on to receive it? Wife finally agreed to cut the cord and isn't too happy with me at the moment. Lol.

Seeking Local Foster/No-Kill Shelter

I took in a beautiful young female stray tabby mix 5 days ago. She's energetic, playful, and loves pets! Unfortunately, I already have a full house with multiple dogs, including a Belgian Malinois and German Shepherd, so I won't be able to keep her.

Before rehoming, I plan to get her spayed and vaccinated (if she isn't already microchipped and owned). I've posted on local Facebook groups and Nextdoor, but no luck finding an owner yet.

Can anyone recommend local fosters or no-kill shelters that might be able to take her in? I'd love to see her go to a good home where she'll receive the attention she deserves.

Thanks in advance for any help or advice!

Helicopters

Who else is seeing these helicopters flying over for the last three nights? They head north over 75 around 7pm. They're not on FlightAware or any tracking service I can find.

Wondering if anyone knows what's up?!

School absence for sibling being born?

Hello, is it normal for parents to keep a child home from school the day they are having a new child? I want my daughter to be the first person introduced to the new baby, but we had planned on sending her to school. I just wasn’t sure if the school would find it appropriate. She also has adhd so the ability to focus is already going to be slim 😅.

Miss Belle's house.

Anyone know what's going to happen to Miss Belle's house?

I remember us taking field trips to there in the 80s, but drove past where it is now and it's in kind of sad shape from the move. I wanted to show my kid the place.

Gym recommendations with kid clubs

Been going to Fitness Connection for years, great budget friendly gym especially for having a place for the kids. They are closing the kids club at the end of this month. Any recommendations for gyms in the Richardson/Garland area with a kids club?

Party Room Rentals?

Hi! I'm a local, expecting, first-time mother. I'm looking for a space in the general area that I could possibly have my baby shower at that won't break my bank. Everything I've looked in to is SO expensive (I don't want to drop a thousand dollars on a 2 hour party for 30 people)! I'm just needing a few hours in a restaurant's back room or a room at an event venue.

Any ideas? Thanks :)

A Laptop

Hello, I’m Poyraz and I came to America a year ago, and most things are not going well. I used to do online jobs, but I don’t have a laptop now. I want to start again to focus my online skills and I bought one, but I had to return it because I couldn’t afford the installments. Do someone have a laptop you’re not using that you could gift me? Thank you.
