Wanting to move to Southside on Lamar in Dallas, TX and I am curious if it is a good place or a bad place to move. Looking for some more current reviews than those on the apartment ratings website.

I never lived there, but I lived downtown for years. I had lots of friends that lived on Southside. Don't do it. It is hugely overpriced and you don't get much to show for it. Its really not that great. No one I knew stayed there very long. With all these condos popping up around downtown, I suggest waiting a bit and watching the prices of anything not brand new plummet. For the prices on Lamar you could buy your own townhome or condo. Email me if you want the name of a good agent in Dallas who specializes in condos and townhomes. I know a few,

Hipchick needs to get out more. Yes the neighborhood has been bad in the past but the place is really being developed nicely. There is a light rail station within blocks of the front door , a police sub-station across the street, the building has good security, and I'm sorry but you will find as much trash in her beloved Fort Worth as here in Dallas, and just as much traffic. Oh and did I mention the light rail which will get you to a lot of places so you might not need your car as much in Dallas?

I have never been there, but I live in Fort Worth. I have only heard bad bad things about Lamar. Like drive bys and stuff. Dallas is way overpopulated and the traffic is a nightmare. They have a high crime rate and theres trash everywhere. I have visited Dallas on occasion and they do have lots to offer, but you really need to talk to some one who lives there because I heard thats a really bad neighborhood. Good luck.
