Living in Frisco, TX
Collin County
Frisco's identity is sports-and-entertainment infrastructure paired with explosive growth, not corporate back-office density like Plano next door: the Dallas Cowboys relocated their headquarters and practice facility here in 2016 ("The Star"), and the PGA of America won a competitive bid to move its entire national headquarters here in 2018, anchoring a golf resort and entertainment campus at Fields Ranch. The U.S. Census Bureau ranked Frisco the 3rd fastest-growing large city in the country as recently as 2024, and that growth shows up directly in housing cost: the median sale price runs roughly $670K-$705K, meaningfully above Plano's and among the priciest in this DFW batch. 2026 coverage notes the market is cooling from its pandemic-era boom, with more inventory and longer days on market than the peak-growth years.

Cited at $675,000 for the trailing month, down 6.2% YoY; broader 2026 coverage puts the range at roughly $670K-$705K depending on source and month. Frisco is described in 2026 coverage as cooling from its pandemic-era boom -- more inventory, longer days on market (~70), and softening price-per-square-foot -- alongside McKinney and Prosper, the other high-permit-volume pandemic-boom suburbs.
Taxes
Not independently sourced at the Collin County level this session. Texas carries no income tax statewide. See the Texas hub page for the statewide property tax context -- do not treat that figure as Frisco-specific.

Pros
Unmatched concentration of major sports/entertainment anchors in this batch -- Dallas Cowboys HQ, PGA of America HQ, FC Dallas, and a minor-league ballpark -- plus a newer housing stock reflecting its recent, rapid build-out.
Cons
The most expensive city-proper median home price in this DFW batch ($670K-$705K); the pandemic-era growth surge is now cooling, per 2026 coverage, with softening price-per-square-foot and longer time-on-market than during Frisco's peak boom years.
Who this fits
Best for: Families and buyers with a larger budget who want newer construction and a genuine sports/entertainment identity (Cowboys HQ, PGA of America) rather than Plano's more purely corporate-office character.
Maybe not for you if: Buyers prioritizing affordability or an established, lower-turnover housing stock should look at Arlington or McKinney instead -- Frisco carries the highest price point in this batch.
