Featured Communities

Richardson is a suburb of Dallas and has an exceptionally large technology sector which comprises most of the industry in the city. Like Dallas, people are normally extremely nice and extremely helpful especially if you are new to the area. As part of the Dallas metropolis at times you may feel entrapped at times but there are plenty of places nearby to go and relax on weekends or days off.

Richardson is more restrictive than other areas of the Dallas metroplex. This makes Richardson a good place to work but Fossnel strongly advises you to live in another area in the metroplex.
