Traveler Reviews
After living on both coasts, Frisco is our favorite place to live by far! An amazing place for families and so much to do.
From the baseball stadium to the football stadium to the ice arena to the green parks, walking trails, city events and concerts Frisco has so many things to do, see and enjoy. That's only the tip of the iceberg. There's shopping, the Sci-Tech discovery center for kids, movies, minor leage sports teams and fantastic schools. Frisco is fun fun fun. It's a terrific place to visit or live.
Whether it's world class soccer, Minor league baseball, D league basketball, a great Sci Tech Discovery Zone for kids, terrific shopping, great restaurants or one of the finest libraries in America, Frisco is the place to be.
There are no strangers in Frisco. I moved here when there were only 35,000 residents, and now we're at 125,000. We have kept the small town feel, and have a very friendly, incredibly responsive City Government and leaders.
Beautiful, growing and friendly
