Houses for rent in Dallas Texas

Good:It is the cheapest rent in this area for the size of the apartment.
Bad: I'm told it is an area teeming with illegal drug traffic.
Good: There are large balconies and at least some apartments, like mine, have views of only trees, which is fabulous for being in the city.

Bad: There was brand new laminate flooring when I moved in which was apparently made by the Chinese company that supplies 95% of the laminate flooring in Texas. There was a 60 minutes program about how the flooring from the company called Ideal something-or-other has caused hundreds, if not thousands, of people to be extremely ill because of the extremely high levels of formaldehyde which...
