Lifelong home being ruined

I was born in Euless and until this past year, I wouldn't have moved or wanted to. Our diversity and sense of community was very strong. Since last year, the flood gates have opened and I see more out of state plates than I do Texas ones and everything is inane crowded and the hi ...Read More
ghway is starting to be reminiscent of LA rush hour. People from out of state just don't understand how things are here and how we expect you to behave. I can't stand going outside of my house and everyone I know is moving further away from dfw because it's making us hate people. The unique hometown I've known my whole life, is a fraction of its old self. The police are corrupt. Crime is going up.

Lived here since May 2002. Nice, quiet neighborhood with a couple of grocery stores just blocks away. Dental, Chiropractors, Fast food, hair and nail salons, car washes and schools all within walking distance. The Mayors office has always seemed pleasant with the best interest of ...Read More
the community at heart BUT the associated offices are mostly run by those who have the need to display their limited powers. I have tried to beautify my neighborhood by keeping my house in above average order by upgrading electrical, heating and AC, new roof, new garage doors installed and when I go to put a 12 X 16 Storage Shed in my own backyard I go to the Planning and Engineering to apply for a building permit (which in itself is ridiculous) but I am met with resistance the very first time I enter the building. A young lady with a very poor attitude was short tempered and curt because I didn't understand the process or the directions she was giving me. SO I left and came back 2 days later with what I thought was what I needed and then found out I had to apply online and was told I could use one of their computers in the lobby to do so. So I did. Then they tell me it could take up to 10-15 days for this to happen and that if I wasn't going to wait that they would simply double the fee. No problem I finish the app and then they tell me someone from in back will come out and answer all my questions.This was just an opportunity for a "Mr. I can throw my weight around" to take the stage. He introduced himself and asked me what I was going to do and I told him I wanted to put a storage shed in my backyard and that I found out I needed a permit to build for structures over 120 sq ft. and I brought the survey of my property in that I was told I would need the first time I visited. Then he said he needed to see the plans. I said I didn't understand the question, what plans? He said I would have to have plans to build it. I asked, "For a 12x16 storage shed you need plans? I'm going to use a hammer, wood and nails" "It's not the empire state building", I said jokingly. He didn't have any sense of humor either. He then said, "Look, we're about to get crossways here." "Crossways?" I asked. "Because I don't understand why someone would need plans to build a 12x16 storage shed in his OWN backyard?" He said the survey tells them where I'm going to put it but it doesn't tell them how tall it is. I'm thinking to myself, I have a tree in my backyard that is 65' tall! Then he told me the story of a man who went ahead and built a structure on his own property and he cited the man a citation that cost him $2000/day. If this was true then this building person, for the city of Euless was indirectly bragging of his ability to push people around on their own property. If it wasn't true then he was indirectly threatening me. I said that I will go a different direction and shook his hand and thanked him for his time and left. There are other stories concerning the other departments of the City of Euless as well but this one takes the cake. If you want to live in a City where you can't improve your own property for the betterment of the community without paying for unnecessary permits and submitting to the powerplays of city officials and angry secretaries, then Euless is the place to be.The Mayor seems to try hard, as does her Office. The Fire Department has got some great guys too. The library was and will be again a nice library. But we've had our fill. We're getting out now!

Euless is central to many places, has nice parks but
people who live here need to know that there are many coyotes who are being continually
displaced due to construction.
Your small dogs and cats are NOT safe outside.
We have seen coyotes at dawn, at noon and at night in north ...Read More
Euless.
As time goes by you will be shocked at the many signs put up for lost pets,
almost always cats and small dogs.
I urge you in the strongest possible terms to keep your small animals inside or
CLOSELY monitored when outside.

Wow! Is the one word that describes this town. Since I have moved from Las Vegas to Texas my experiences have changed completely. Texas is a huge state and the Euless is just as big with Bedford to the West and Irving to the East there is plenty to do and see here. When I lived i ...Read More
n Las Vegas, I spent most of my time eating at buffets with my friends and going to clubs near by. I am only 24 years old so this is like the dream life for any young man, but after about a year of this I began to crave something different from life. Once I relocated to Euless it seemed like I got everything I wanted and more.
Euless has comedy houses and local art centers that promote local painters and writers. Delving into my more poetic side, I decided to try out my hand at poetry. I actually loved doing it and am a local poet there. A little fame never hurt anybody, right?
Though Euless is a great city, there are things about it that I do not like. Coming from Vegas, I am used to things being opened 24 hours a day. Here most stores and businesses close down at around 10pm. The few nightclubs around usually close down at 1am. I also, hate that the cities in Texas are so far spaced apart. From Euless to El Paso(where my grandmother lives) is about 11 hours! So a round trip drive would take about an entire day!
If you plan on moving here expect to pay a lot in gas prices, but also expect a great school system for your children. There are also a lot of jobs available here, so if you are out of work Euless or any other city in Texas is perfect for you!
