Is The Village Dallas good for an Aggie moving alone?

Quick answer

Yes—if social connection is a major priority and the commute works. Grant Bynum, a Texas Aggie and longtime Dallas apartment locator, considers The Village his top Dallas choice for many recent Aggie grads moving alone. Its advantage is the combination of 18 residential communities, shared fitness and recreation, restaurants and coffee, plus frequent resident programming. That creates repeated opportunities to meet people instead of depending on an occasional apartment mixer. Grant’s recommendation is selective, though: he would start with Westside, Dakota, Northbridge, Upper East Side and The Drey rather than treating all 18 communities as interchangeable.
