Arlington, Texas - Proud To Call It Home

Talking Points on Arlington: If you were asked by someone, in the 35 and under/creative type crowd, why live in Arlington? What would you add or subtract from these couple of paragraphs?

Vision of Arlington Proud: Our vision is an engaged and diverse community where passionate people love to Live. Work. Create.

Arlingtonites are loving their neighborhoods, 92 parks and always something fun going on nearby.

Year-round, all ages, enjoy over 60 free outdoor concerts at the Levitt, top community theaters, 40 venues for live music and multiple cultural and sports events monthly at UTA. Arlingtonites are proud of their national recognized performing arts and sports programs in the public schools and highly rated college prep, parochial, charter and private schools.

There are over 130 schools to choose from as well as a strong Home School Association. Arlington, Texas even has one of the largest selections of unique and reasonable priced neighborhoods in Texas and more Mid-Century Modern homes to choose from than any city in the region.

To seal the deal there are over 250, international and locally owned restaurants with food and drink from across the the globe. 5 of those restaurants have been featured on (DDD) Diners, Dives and Drive In's.

For anything else you want to see and do, that you can't find in Arlington, you are just 30 minutes away, including a 15 minute drive to DFW Airport.

These are just a few of the reasons we love to live in #ArlTx. #ArlingtonProud
