The sad reality is that the White population in DFW as a whole is under 40% and falling fast. So now even suburban and rural areas are being overtaken.
The days of supermajority White, Christian, conservative suburbs is effectively over in DFW. If that's what you want, you can find it in Oklahoma, Idaho, Utah, east Oregon, or parts of New England. Central Austin including downtown is very White, but it's also filled with the most rabid, insanely stupid libs you'll ever meet. Texas is finished and will likely turn blue within 15 years or less.
The speed that this demographic decline happened is genuinely shocking. I moved into Willow Bend in Plano in 2002 when that neighborhood was new and compared to Beverly Hills/Highland Park.
Plano West and Shepton were A-rated White schools. Everyone was rich, conservative, Christian and the neighborhood was 90% White. To see what has become of it today is sickening.
Ugh this is a depressing read. Our son lives in Richardson, which I've never been a fan of, but I have noticed the young white families have moved in their in droves. You go to any park or t-ball game and it's a bunch of white families.
I guess they're tired of living in damn near Oklahoma to get away and are gentrifying Richardson.
My cousins grew up in Richardson...
It was a regular "white" suburb. When I would come visit, it was the normal kid stuff.
But, that was back in the 70s and early 80s.
But, I remember 10-20 years ago that Frisco was the fastest growing city in the US.
Apparently, the demographics have changed lately.
And often that causes gentrification of other areas...
You can turn off signatures, btw
