Lewisville Texas? Oh man, stay away from the Barrow apartments. The apartments are infested with roaches, they shut down the water line like once a week to fix something that’s broken, and management is pretty terrible all around. It wasn’t that long ago that someone set fire to cars like once a month for 18 months and they did nothing to deal with it.

Lewisville in general is pretty sketchy. But if you have to go to Lewisville, take a car, public transit is pretty awful and drivers don’t take too kindly to bicycles or motorcycles. The laws are pretty harsh in the whole state for drugs so don’t even smoke weed.

While I can’t recommend anything in Lewisville, Denton is pretty great. It’s a college town with the University of North Texas being the heart of the community. I heard the community college there was pretty good. I didn’t go myself but I did drive past it a few times and it looked decently funded.

As for finding a college on your own, Google is your friend. There are sites that compare schools’ graduation rates, rank education based on majors, and which universities they feed into. I bet there’s one that will suit your needs. Don’t forget to separately search “[school name] crime” or something similar to have an idea as to what you’ll need to watch out for while continuing your education.

Lastly, look for fun stuff to do. There are parks and hiking trails nearby and pretty good museums and music venues in Dallas. And I’ve gotta mention guns. Shooting ranges are easy to find, they’re fun to go to, and usually staff are happy to help show people what to do and how to do it.
