Our Take
Plano 75023 offers solid schools and a decent commute to Dallas, but it’s very car‑dependent with limited transit and nightlife. The cost of living is on the higher side for what you’ll get in terms of walkability and entertainment, so it’s worth a closer look if your priorities are family life and a good commute.
