Grant’s direct answer
Yes. For West Plano or Frisco employees who commute only about two days per week or less, Grant believes central-Dallas lifestyle areas deserve serious consideration. The Village, Uptown, and Victory Park can provide stronger access to central social life while the longer northbound commute happens infrequently. West Plano itself can also be highly social, so HomeBase would compare both rather than assume a hybrid employee must live south. The exact office, toll-road route, commute tolerance, and lifestyle priorities determine whether central Dallas is worth the tradeoff.
