[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were facing the same issue, and ended up buying in the Haycock boundary. FCC was too small for us. The housing in our price range, 600 -750K, was pretty awful.  We originally thought FCC based on a friend's recommendation. The more we looked into Haycock, the more it looked like the right choice for us.

We have been very happy with Haycock. The teachers are fantastic, the parents and PTA are very involved, and my kid really likes it. The school goes to great lengths to provide a more challenging curriculum for each child. They consistently win multiple math competitions due to the academic focus.  We also liked the Longfellow and McLean options for secondary better.

FWIW we shop and participate in FCC activities even though we don't live in the boundary since it is so close. Fireworks, farmers market, summer camps, ect. For us it has been the benefit of the city without the taxes.

Lastly, the city seems to be fairly democratic leaning.  We are more independent moderates, so I don't think we would fit in with our neighbors if we lived there. [/quote]

Op here. Interesting! Did u end up buying near the school itself? Are you walkable to FCC? Did you find a nice house with tpur budget? Nicer than what u could get in FCC for that price range?
