Dallas Mansions for Rent

Dallas is sometimes referred to as the Silicon Prairie because of the large concentration of telecommunications and high-tech companies located in the area known as the "Telecom Corridor". And with companies such as Texas Instruments, EDS and CompUSA headquartered in the area, that nickname certainly fits. But many other companies from a diverse range of industries have also positioned their headquarters in Dallas, with notables being Kimberly-Clark, Southwest Airlines, Brinker International, Blockbuster, 7-Eleven, Exxon-Mobil and Frito Lay. As the Southwest's leading business and financial center, Dallas offers a wealth of opportunities in a number of industries.

And Major League Baseball's Texas Rangers are not too far away in nearby Arlington.

But professional sports aren't the only attractions in Dallas. Outdoor enthusiasts have more than 400 parks to choose from, 17 lakes to explore, and a large number of bike and jogging trails on which to stretch their legs.

Lovers of the arts can view a Monet at the Dallas Museum of Arts, listen to Mozart at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center, and will find independent galleries and communities of artists thriving in areas of town such as Deep Ellum, the Bishop Arts District, and the Downtown Arts District. Nightlife choices are limitless in Dallas, with several hotspots such as Lower Greenville, The West End, Deep Ellum, Addison, Uptown, and The West Village offering countless places to wine and dine.

And with more restaurants per capita than New York City, the options for dining out are extremely diverse. But we can't forget the second most popular sport in Dallas after football: Shopping! Home to Neiman Marcus and containing more shopping centers per capita than any other United States city truly makes Dallas a shopping paradise.
