The Dallas Business Journal recently wrote an article about how Dallas could possibly see a housing shortage in the near future.
This might sound crazy since all you read and hear in the news today is about the bad economy, the high number of foreclosures, and how high the unemployment rate is right now... but any top Realtor in the area will tell you that business is booming right now.
The reason for this is that the Dallas area never had the suddening appreciation that the east and west coast areas experienced. Plus the Dallas job market has remained relatively steady throughout the downturn and thus we have had a large number of added residents moving into the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

I live in Dallas, but those of us who live in Oak Cliff rarely say we live in Dallas. I am proud to say I live in Oak Cliff! I am a Cliff Dweller. More specifically I live in North Oak Cliff. Oak Cliff is the largest of the five areas of Dallas. It used to be it's own city before it was annexed into Dallas way back when. That being said, there is a lot of room for several types of communities. In an area so large, and in a big city, Oak Cliff definitely has it's "shady parts" which seem to always make the news and hence make the rest of the DFW metroplex think Oak Cliff is not the place to be. Well guess what, it is the best place in Dallas to be! Which is good right, I mean, Oak Cliff, it's my hood! I better love it! There is even a rap song titled, "Oak Cliff, that's my hood!" which is where I get my slogan. I think North Oak Cliff is Dallas' little hidden secret. It is one of the oldest parts of Dallas, thus giving beautiful mature trees, we have rolling hills and just about every home is filled with character because believe it or not, when Oak Cliff was built, they didn't have cookie cutter homes! North Oak Cliff is a small, tight knit community within a very large city. I have never lived anywhere where I felt more connected than I do to my community. Cliff Dwellers can see the Dallas downtown skyline and get downtown to work or play within minutes...even with traffic! There is always a short cut to Oak Cliff and you never even have to get on a highway! Those of you living in the 'burbs, imagine that! I'd say Cliff Dwellers are pretty green. I think that's part of why we live here...we want to conserve our energy and live where everything is happening. Oak Cliff has some of Dallas' most fabulous restaurants. Oak Cliff is growing, revitalizing, and I believe the best kept secret in Dallas!
