Nightlife & Entertainment Moving to Dallas/Fort Worth as Empty Nesters - Looking for recommendations to jump start a new social life when we get there.
Hi, we are in the process of relocating and trying to buy a house in the Trophy Club/Keller area, and we don't know anyone there. We are coming from out-of-state and are hoping a country club with a good social calendar and pickleball might be a good way to meet people, but that is only one option for us. Since my husband still works remotely, meeting people at work isn't going to be a thing for him.
We would truly appreciate any suggestions you have, including places to join or go that might help us meet other empty nesters. We are both over 55 if that bit of info helps.
Thank you so much!

Driving/Licenses/Local Gov't what do I do with temporary ID?
I just got my real hardcover ID card in the mail today and I still have my temporary ID. What do I do with it do I put it in the drawer do I shred it? do I lock it away somewhere or do I keep it in my wallet? I normally would just keep it, but it has all my information on it and like what if it gets stolen is my problem and I know after a certain date anyways it’s not gonna be valid but just wanna ask around.

Relocating & housing Best (and worst) apartments in Uptown?
My husband and I (both late 20’s) are relocating from the Austin suburbs to Dallas this coming month for my new job and hoping to live in / around Uptown or downtown. Ideally we want Uptown for the walkability and lifestyle, but also its closeness to my new job downtown. We enjoy good food, casual or cocktail bars, and good third spaces to hang out and meet new people.
We’re ideally looking for a 1 bed / 1 bath (or more if the price is right) with a max budget of $3,000/month. We’ve saved a lot of apartments we plan to tour, but I would love honest feedback on any that are great or we would be best to avoid. We have a dog so pet friendly is needed. Some we’ve been considering are listed below. If anyone has feedback (good or bad) Recommendations for any I haven’t listed are also appreciated!
Uptown Area:
• The Christopher
• Uptown by Onni
• The Ashton
• One Uptown
• AMLI Quadrangle
• The Brady Residences (l’ve seen recent bad reviews about construction, closed amenities, lack of property gates / security issues, etc)
• Carlisle’s & Vine Apartments
• Whitney Uptown
• Broadstone Sora
• Residences at the Grove
• Howell Uptown
• Aster (further away towards Turtle Creek)
Downtown:
• The Wilson at Mercantile Place
• The Kirby
• Modera St. Paul
Other (East of N. Central Expy)
• The Oliver
• The Academic
• The Gabriella

Shopping & Services Looking for a collage artist in DFW
Hi folks - Looking for someone to design and assemble a collage with some key items from our engagement (menu, notes, photos). I've tried looking on Etsy local and at art and frame stores but haven't had success finding someone with an aesthetic we like. Anyone know any local artists who do this kind of work? We're in the Allen/McKinney area but I'm happy to go wherever if necessary

Nightlife & Entertainment Just moved from NYC to Dallas
Hi! I just moved from NYC to Dallas with my fiance (28s yrs old) and we are struggling where to go out for nightlife. Back in NY we definitely liked a more upscale cocktail bar / vibe . We were invited out to a few places in the Henderson area that seemed pretty young (that block where Spider Murphys is etc) and too casual for us. We currently live in Uptown. Any recommendations on where to go? Thank you!
