Home On The Range In Wylie, TX User Rating 4 rating By Anonymous ( Aug 18, 2015) After living in Maine for my entire life, I moved to Wylie, TX about three years ago.

If you like to drink or enjoy a meal of steak and potatoes, then you will be at home in Wylie as the city has quite a few bars and grills. There are also a few wineries that I have seen in the area. Most of the jobs that are in Wylie pay well as many are businesses. There are also several farmers I have seen. They enjoy taking their produce to farmer's markets to sell what they grow. One of the negative aspects of the city is that there aren't a lot of shopping centers. Read Less
