Our Take
Addison offers decent schools, a short drive to downtown Dallas, and low flood risk, but it’s very car‑dependent with limited public transit. The median home price is high relative to income, so buying here may stretch a budget. It’s a solid choice for commuters or families who don’t need walkability, but not ideal if you want a more walkable, vibrant city feel.
