    Living in location

    Spanning both Collin and Denton counties is Plano, a suburban small town in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area of north Texas, roughly 20 miles north of downtown Dallas. Renters in Plano benefit from a significantly lower population; a comparatively low cost of living; and faster access to Dallas than most surrounding cities, such as Fort Worth. In addition, Plano has a strong live music scene and thriving industries within financial services, electronics, telecommunications and information technology. To that end, many renters find employment with Intuit, Bank of America and Ericsson.

    Beyond its economic advantages, Plano's numerous parks, trails, and recreational centers offer residents an active lifestyle. The city's commitment to cultural events, from outdoor concerts to seasonal festivals, fosters a tight-knit community feel amidst its urban growth.
