Hello, we are young asian American family with a 2year old looking into moving from NY to plano or carrollton TX. We are interested in moving because the living expense in NY is super high and wanted to move somewhere thats more affordable but thats also a good place to raise a child.

Few questions I have for Plano is how is the weather like during summer and winter? Is summer heat really that brutal? And hows the housing market? In NY specifically LI, the housing market is competitive with a lot of cash buyers and people still putting in offers for houses above asking price, is it similar there? I also read that people are moving out of Plano in certain parts, is that something to be concerned for new movers? Any info will be appreciated, thank you!

Hi everyone! I’m in the Plano area and looking to connect with local families who occasionally need a babysitter for date nights or weekend plans!

I have 15+ years of childcare experience and have cared for children of various ages. I’m dependable, responsible, and enjoy helping families have peace of mind while they’re out enjoying an evening.
I’m generally most available Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and I’d love to find a family I can build a long-term relationship with and become their go-to sitter!

I’m happy to travel to nearby areas like Allen, McKinney, and Richardson.

If you know of a family looking for occasional childcare or have suggestions for connecting with local parents, I’d love to hear from you. Feel free to message me! 😊

Hey everyone!

I recently moved to Plano as a 24M international student, and I’m really hoping to catch the Ed Sheeran concert on Saturday, October 24th. I don't have anyone to go with or a way to commute either :'(. Haven't booked the tickets yet.

I’m looking to see if anyone else from the Plano/Dallas area is planning to go and would be open to letting me tag along! I'd love to find a concert buddy to head in with, but I'm also just completely open to a ride-share if you already have your own group. I am more than happy to chip in for gas, tolls etc.!

If you have an extra seat or want to head to the show together, please drop a comment or send me a DM. I'm happy to exchange social media, LinkedIn beforehand so we can chat and verify we're both normal people.

Thanks!

Found in Plano 10/18 around 7:30AM solo-roaming the neighborhood. Looks like a goldendoodle or a doodle mix. Dog is not microchipped.

Posting this on behalf of my friend who found the dog this morning. We have a photo of the dog, but I don't want to post it in case anybody can claim it. Hoping to find the owner soon!

THIS IS A TAX INCREASE; Authorizing the City’s

venue project, specifically being a new multipurpose

arena for professional or amateur sports,

entertainment, and civic events in The Shops at

Willow Bend shopping mall area in the City, and

authorizing imposition of one or more of the following

for the purpose of financing the venue project: (1) a

short-term motor vehicle rental tax in the City at a

rate not to exceed 5%; (2) an event parking tax at the

venue project not to exceed $3.00 per vehicle; (3) an

event admissions tax at the venue project at a rate

not to exceed 10% of each ticket price; (4) a venue

facility use tax in an amount not to exceed $5,000 per

game on each member of a major league team that

plays a professional sports game at the venue

project; (5) a hotel occupancy tax in the City at a rate

not to exceed 2% of the room price. If approved, the

maximum hotel occupancy tax rate imposed from all

sources in the City of Plano would be 15% of the

price paid for a room in a hotel.

SHEPHARD MIX REHOMING - PLANO

Macaroni lives up to his name, because he is a complete silly noodle. He is a high energy derpy shepherd mix that is looking for a forever home with lots of opportunity to run and play to burn energy. He is 21 months old and is a goof ball through and through. He knows doggie manners, has basic socialization, knows safety commands, loose lead walks, and knows many fun tricks!

He gets along great with dogs, plays gently with cats and seems to show no interest in rodents (trained around a guinea pig). He is also so snuggly and will climb in your lap to sleep or chew a bone/toys. He is generally confident but still has the Shepard instincts of caution around new things but can easily pivot once he knows there is no danger.

Caution: Macaroni has trauma from early puppyhood with food scarcity. He resource guards his food and treats around other animals only (not humans). Macaroni is also very protective and loyal once attached to an owner or family so he can be clingy.

Macaroni is perfectly crate trained. I will be giving his crate away to his forever home with him. It is his safe space and he like to nap with the door open in the crate.

I have had him since 7 weeks old from an accidental litter that a coworker had. Unfortunately, the party responsible for the accidental litter wanted to throw the litter to the street if they did not find homes fast enough. I stepped in and took the last puppy. I want so much to keep him and have kept him as long as possible, but I know the current resources I have are not suitable for his breed type and keeping him longer would be a disservice to him. He has officially outgrown my apartment.

I have raised him and given him a strong foundation in manners and social skills with a few exceptions. He is neutered and up to date on all vaccines and gets monthly HW prevention and I have trained him to tolerate all forms of touch from snout, teeth, ears, feet, and tail. He is still a puppy at 21 months (Born 12.29.2024) and although he still needs some work, I feel like he is ready for a forever home that can give him not just the baseline, but the full experience a dog of his breed should experience in their life.

DETAILS:

*Male

*21 months ( born 12.29.24)

*Vaccines up to date (Rabie Certificate included, not just vet paper with date)

neutered as of 01.02.2026 (i have all medical papers/records)

*Personality: HIGH ENERGY, adolescent phase, chill and snuggle when relaxed and tired. Gentle lover boy who will cling to you like sap on a tree

He also comes trained at the beginner and intermediate levels. I have his training papers as well (each class over 100 dollars each).

Rehoming fee well worth a trained and polite pup.

*REHOMING FEE: 250 dollars

Comes with his large crate (over 250 dollars worth right there already), all of his toys with a hamper to store, food storage container, two slow feeder bowls, leashes, harnesses, outfits, HW supply, flea prevention supply, treats, and a brand new large bag of food.

I do not feel right just keeping the rehoming fee so I will donate the money to a shelter of your choice and provide a receipt. I don't like "selling" dogs but I know it is necessary to help prevent people with ill intentions from hurting dogs.

Anyone else getting spammed by the pro Prop A groups? I've gotten at least 5 different numbers messaging my phone. I will reply STOP and then a new number shows up a couple days later. Curious if anyone else has been hit up by these morons?
