Allen Reviews
Rating 4.3 out of 5 488 reviews
I have lived in Allen since 1998. It has grown tremendously in the past 20 years. There is a large population of South Asians that have moved to the Allen/Frisco/McKinney area, which is nice because I am South Asian too and can remember when I was the only one in my classes. Allen could use more socializing third spaces for young adults, but it is wonderful for families. The high school offers MANY accelerated programs and will help students get a head start in their careers.
Hi have had a very good experience with Allen. I used to live in McKinney and it was unsafe. When I moved, I was pleasantly surprised with the experience here.
Allen is safe, family-friendly neighborhood with lots of opportunities to foster a healthy, balanced lifestyle.
