Denton Overview

Considered a key part of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, apartments in Denton offer convenience, an array of amenities and enough down-home Texas hospitality to last a lifetime. Bursting with truly unique shops and an eclectic, thriving arts scene, this sleepy college city is a great place to consider.

What is the history of Denton?

Born of a land grant in the mid-1800s, and taking its name from a famed pioneer, Denton quickly established itself as a Texas hot spot. The railroad arrived in 1881, leading to an increased base population, and an expansion into a duo of local colleges helped further cement the city's appeal. As the 1960s moved into the 1980s, Denton gained a number of industry titans, including Peterbilt and Morrison Milling. Today, apartments in Denton cater to a wide swath of lifestyles and economic levels.

How is the weather in Denton?

Texas weather is known the world over for long hot summers, and Denton is no exception. Its northern placement makes it a tad more likely to see some snowfall every few years, but by and large Denton apartment residents can expect mild winters and pleasant autumn nights. Spring brings with it seasonal cedar fever allergies and occasional storms, but overall this Texas city is big on sunshine.

How do I get around town?

The DCTA A-Train is a fantastic and new rail commuter train, offering service to five large hubs around the area including Dallas. A regional ride service known as TRAN caters to the elderly and special needs population, while the Denton Municipal Airport largely focuses upon freight and private aircraft. Of course, the Dallas Airport is never far away, offering international and domestic flights, and a large group of Denton rental denizens claim ownership of at least one personal car or truck to get around.

What is the Denton commute like?

Denton proper is relatively easy to get around in, with its famous town square a focal point of city activity. Interstate 35 is far and away the most used roadway, although Highway 380 heads west as well. Those driving to the larger job markets of Dallas or fort Worth can expect slow commutes on most days, plagued by fender-bender accidents and almost constant road construction delays.

What are the local media outlets?

The 'Denton Record-Chronicle' has acted as primary print media for well over a century, while 'The Lasso' focuses upon student issues and the university scene. DTV is a local public access broadcasting outfit, mainly covering town council meetings and the like, although typical affiliate programming from CBS, NBC and beyond are also easily available to residents of apartments in Denton. KNTU is the famed Denton college radio station, primarily focused upon jazz and blues programming.

Why live in Denton, TX?

From the funky secondhand stores that line the downtown square to the almost constantly-evolving live music scene, Denton often gets tagged as 'little Austin' for its focus upon arts and entertainment. The consistent influx of young people for the area universities adds to a forward-thinking 'college town' vibe, making the city an exceptional place to live and work.

What Denton landmarks should I see?

The Denton Square is loaded with eye-popping landmarks, including the popular clock tower and a number of historic buildings. The former courthouse is a marvel of architecture and listed on the National Registry of Historic Places, and the Confederate Solider Monument looms over twelve feet tall. Rubber Gloves Rehearsal Studio is a famed live music venue, drawing in bands as diverse as The Sword and the Riverboat Gamblers for packed shows almost every week.

What is there to do around Denton?

"The 'Huffington Post' called Denton ""practically an indie band factory at this point"" with good reason - live music can be found on just about every street corner of this artistic hub. Take a stroll through the largest community garden in the entire nation, or tour one of the many art galleries found in the downtown square. "

Any annual festivals or Denton events to know?

Denton is flush with numerous yearly festivals, including such crowd-pleasers as the 35 Denton Music Festival and the North Texas Rodeo. Toe-tapping abounds with the annual Denton Jazz Festival, and the nearby State Fair (complete with legendary Big Tex!) draws thousands of revelers every summer. Of course, this being Texas means BBQ Cook-offs are never in short supply, and the newly minted Denton Comedy Festival collects dozens upon dozens of regional and national headliners into a variety of clubs around the city square.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Denton provides a fantastic spot for locals to have day trips. Just a few hours from Austin, residents can shoot down I-35 and spend a day in the capital city. If casino trips are more your thing, then Shreveport is only 3 and a half hours to the east. Of course locals can also easily take some day trips to surrounding DFW areas and explore, explore, explore!

Where is the best place to move in Denton?

Those attending the University of North Texas tend to unsurprisingly reside close to campus, while a majority of working-class families can be found in Denton rentals just outside of the town square. Regardless of where you choose, rest easy in the fact that Denton living is some of the best in the Lone Star State. Good luck with your search!
