Never really understood the huge split - even met several women who are 100% committed to working the area I loosely describe as "North Dallas"* And YET they actually live in FW - I definitely feel for their commute!
For me, it adds at least an hour to the time I need for a session, and really kicks my ass if circumstances come up where our end-time pushes towards 330 or 4 as it makes the drive home a 1 - 1.5 hour thrill ride.
There's no easy way to count hobbyists in the locales - but a search of P411 reveals:
439 for Dallas
64 for Ft Worth
21 for Arlington
9 for Plano
6 for Frisco
4 for Euless
3 for Lewisville
3 for "Mid-Cities"
2 for Garland
One would think competition would drive down prices in North Dallas, but of course this is the Hobby, largely immune from the normal supply/demand curves.
* the area north of 635, south of the Rayburn Tollway, and between I-35E to the West and US 75 to the East. Personally I once called it "HoVille" but have recently changed my ways and now call it "the land of 10,000 pleasures"
