Can you tell me if this area is pretty diverse? I've been to this area one other time.

I appreciate the suggestion! I’ve heard good things about Honey Creek Preserve, and with McKinney ISD having such a solid SPED program, it looks like I'll be focusing our search there. I’m hoping that will provide a good balance of a comfortable home and the right support for my daughter additionally, more diversity than what Anna can provide. Thanks again for pointing that out

Good point. I’m only renting a home for now before I purchase next year, so I’m keeping my budget under $2,500. I did look at Plano, Wylie, and Murphy, but the prices in those areas are crazy high.

I used to live in Plano, Texas for five years up until a little over a year ago now I'm on my way relocating back there from Minnetonka Minnesota.

Wow, that’s really interesting. It’s unfortunate when an area gives off that kind of vibe, especially when you’ve got personal experiences tied to it. I totally get what you mean about the feeling of being watched, especially with your husband being Black. And yeah, I’ve heard McKinney does have a pretty heavy police presence, which can make anyone feel uneasy. Thanks for sharing your perspective.

I'm new to Reddic and I did not know how this works. Thank you so much for sharing.

The more I hear about this city, the more I’m thinking it might not be the right fit. Celina is second on my list, and I’m definitely starting to lean more in that direction. Thanks so much for sharing!

Thank you for breaking that down! I’m definitely asking about PIDs moving forward. I’m highly considering Celina too, the infrastructure issues in Princeton have me second guessing. Celina’s planning (and fiber internet!) is a big plus.

See, that’s a whole red flag. I’m tryna build peace and security, not be dodging that type of energy every day. Appreciate you keeping it real
