Looking to move to Dallas and need help with a good neighborhood.

Hello everyone,

I am looking to move from Chicago to Dallas, Texas. 

My first post was deciding where to go and being able to invest but now, with the help of this phenomenal community,  I was able to narrow it down to Dallas, Tx but as we all know Texas is a big state. 

So my question is do anyone know where is a great place to live in Dallas that have 

great school for my kids.

Less crime and is diverse

Thank you.

@Bruce Lee   Techonology is mostly centered around Richardson, Plano, Frisco.....but there is some spreadout over the Metroplex.

TI is based in Richardson near 635/75 for example.

What we call telecom corridor is around Richardson....more or less 75 between Spring Valley and George Bush tollway.

Just depends on what tech you are thinking of....some data centers south of the city...some west.

Dell in Plano, Sabre in Southlake, Real Page in Plano, Accenture...everywhere, Goldman Sachs probably in downtown Dallas, ubertech in Deep Ellum, Microsoft in Irving, ATT in downtown Dallas, Solera in Southlake, Mercado Labs in downtown Dallas, you've also got big tech contingents at Capitol One, JP Morgan Chase, Deloitte, Palo Alto Networks, etc.

Lots of people think of Silicon Alley, Seattle, and Austin as tech centers of the universe, but Dallas is strong....TI was probably one of the first IC chip companies is based here and EDS was started here, sold to GM, reinvented as Perot Systems, sold again....to Dell....but still have strong presence here.
