Farmers Branch, aka "The City in a Park"
Originally named for its rich farming soil, Farmers Branch is now known for its parks. There are over 28 within its 12 square mile radius, with the newest addition, Joya, featuring a glow-in-the-dark playground. "It's a place that you can come and live forever," says local Angela Romine, the office manager at the local Montessori school. From its toddler pools to its senior centers and homes right by convenient bus stops, this city caters to all stages of life. Farmers Branch's diverse amenities combined with its convenience in North Dallas are inspiring a wave of new residents. "A lot of houses are being built, and tons of townhomes are coming up all along the dart rail."

Farmers Branch DART station provides locals and works easy access across DFW
Taking the train at the Farmers Branch Station
"We have an excellent DART system here. There is a stop everywhere," says Romine. "If you don't have a car, you don't need it if you're a dart ride railer." Many of these stops are along Valley View Lane, Josey Lane, Denton Drive and Luna Road. The rail stop is at Farmers Branch Station off Denton Drive. Romine says bike paths are okay here, but they are built along busy main roads. Being surrounded by several highways and toll roads, it would be easy to commute to work from Farmers Branch, but some might feel incentivized to stay. This city just moved to a 4-day work week for city employees.
Elegant classics at Roots Southern Table
Farmers Branch is actively beefing up its restaurant options. Craft Beer & Fine Wine opened in 2023, bringing a craft cocktail and wine bar to the area. Roots Southern Table, which put Farmers Branch on the map in 2021, has been nominated for several James Beard awards; menu staples include fried shrimp and gumbo and duck confit pasta. Shopping is slim, but everything is close. Addison Town Center, 4 miles northeast, has a Kroger for groceries and a Target for essentials. The Galleria Dallas, 5 miles east, has Guess, Gap, H&M, high-end places like Louis Viton, and an indoor ice-skating rink.
Roots Southern Table is a popular evening dining option in the ever expanding Farmers Branch.
