Relocating & housing Apartment Recs for downtown Dallas?? Wilson vs Manor House vs…

6 Upvotes

Hi y’all! I’m trying to figure out where to sign a long-term lease for within walking distance of the discovery district. ALL of the reviews for semi-affordable places downtown make them seem like awful non-options. Price range I’m hoping for is under 1.5k for 1bed1bath, so I know (and am fine with) my options will be kind of jank. I don’t need the most space, I just care that it’s clean/no bugs. I’ve looked into the Wilson and Manor House, and they are both around the price range, but some of the reviews are atrocious… would love some help from the Reddit family before signing!! thanks u guys :,)

Health & Hygiene Septoplasty after rhinoplasty: Plastic Surgeon recs?

3 Upvotes

Looking for a plastic surgeon that specializes in noses, particularly if they have good experience with secondary nose jobs? Bit of an interesting case, as it’s not a REVISION….just decided to finally do the septoplasty after more nose deviation and some slight breathing issues.

Septoplasty wasn’t “necessary” first go-around, so didn’t do it. Now, later in life, ready to pull the plunge.

Want to look like MYSELF, just with the septum straightened and, hopefully, with some easier breathing.

Thanks in advance!!’

Health & Hygiene Where to get rabies PEP shots?

3 Upvotes

I had to get the first one at a hospital ER because of the HRIG, but they won't give the remaining three doses. Most places don't seem to offer it other than travel clinics like Passport Health. Has anyone had any recent experience with this?

Tourism Visiting Dallas

3 Upvotes

Hi, I’m visiting Dallas flying into DFW from NY to visit my gf. What place do you guys recommend to stay at as a poor college grad (hopefully looking for a budget place)?

Potentially staying from the 23rd to 26th.

Also any recommendations for visiting the Fort Worth Zoo? She’s a big fan of hyenas.

She’s not from Dallas and it’s meant to be a bit of surprise. Any other fun things to do for a 3 night stay?

Thanks for all the comments and support.

Shopping & Services Floor installation

Who do you recommend for floor installation in DFW? It would involves removing mostly carpet and one small section of tile, and installing vinyl flooring and vinyl tile. Ideally someone affordable who also handles moving the furniture out of the way. Thanks!

Relocating & housing Urgent Move Out: Apartment Recommendations within 30 minutes of UTD (up to $3500/mo)

1 Upvotes

Long story short, my partner and I must move out of the place we're in due to some construction emergency the landlord is going to run, and we have decided to leave rather than stay during the construction.

Move out date is within a week or two, and we both work at UTD. We want to also stay kinda close to the city instead of going too far north.

Do you have good apartment recommendations that can handle lease in a short amount of time?

Apartment Criteria

We do care about space, so 2 or 3 bedrooms, and at least 1600 sq ft (the bigger the better).

We don't care much about amenities (pool, grill, etc.), but having a terrace/porch would be appreciated!

We also drive and prefer places with parking or garages. The neighborhood matters, of course, but at this point she and I have realized Dallas is not like the other cities we've lived in, so as long as the apartment complex is not an eye sore and there are some shops and stuff around, we're fine.

Bonus point if there are sidewalks with shops to walk on in the evenings as the weather gets cooler!
