Ummmmm, Dallas created the first magnet high school called Skyline High School. Dallas has one of the best schools in the country Yvonne Ewell Townview Center. Kathlyn Joy Gilliam Collegiate Academy is the number one public school in Dallas. The School is Exemplary. You can take college classes and high school classes at the same time. When you graduate you will have your college diploma and 2 years of college. The school has a 100% passing rate in every subject except math, the passing rate in math is 99%.

Criteria:
- Weather-Dallas
- Scenery-I guess Boston(although I DO like Dallas's prarie look)
- Economy-I guess Boston because of it's combination of it's bio-tech industry.
- Education-Boston
- Parks-I guess Boston
- Waterfront-Boston
- Nightlife-Dallas(techno scene, although I don't care for Techno, it's popular).
- Safety-Boston
- Downtown activity-Boston
- Shopping-Dallas
- Diversity-Dallas
- Housing stock-Tie I guess, both cities have housing that I like.
- School systems (K-12)-I guess Dallas???
- Higher education (Colleges & Universities)-Boston(C'mon, we all know why)
- Mass Transit-Boston(although DART is a beast in it's own right)
- Niche Industry (What are they for either?)-Both have multiple fields, so tie?
- Pace of life-Ehhh, EITHER is fine.
- Quality of life-Ehhh^^^^^Same answer.
- Cost of living-Dallas
- Dining scene-Dallas. (New England Clam chowder sounds like it taste good, BUT Mexican food is my thing. So Dallas.)

Questions:
- Which one would you rather live in? And why?-I could live in Both I guess(although I hate cold weather, I'd deal with it). But I'm leaning towards Dallas. Boston looks like an interesting city. Oh yeah, and Boston DOES have ghettos: Mattapan, Dorchester, Blue Hill Ave( I know all this because I have a firend from Boston).

I would love to know when DART became a "beast in its own right". Seems like a pretty small system to me.

72 miles and growing isn't small.

Actually, this is very small. Dallas is not livable without a car.

Dallaz post is basically what I was saying. 72 miles(and growing like he said) isn't that small.

Because Dallas is geographically HUGE. Not because DART is small. And it depends on what part of Dallas you live in.

How big is Boston's rail?
