You and I, We're Plano Close: The Great Dallas-Plano Distance Debate (Spoiler Alert: It's Not a Debate)
Ah, the burning question that has plagued philosophers for ages, second only to "what is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?" (African or European?) Well, fret no more, for today we crack the code on the seemingly insurmountable question: How far is Plano, Texas from Dallas, Texas?
Buckle up, buttercup, because this is about to get thrilling. (Just kidding, it's not that thrilling, but hey, gotta keep you engaged, right?)
Note: Skipping ahead? Don’t miss the middle sections.

| How Far Is Plano To Dallas |
As the Crow Flies (Who Flies in Texas Anyway?)
Let's start with the straight and narrow. As the crow flies (although I'm pretty sure crows in Texas are too busy dodging tumbleweeds to fly very far), Plano and Dallas are practically BFFs. We're talking short-distance relationship goals, clocking in at a measly 15-ish miles. That's shorter than your average jog to escape the wrath of a rogue armadillo.
Tip: Stop when confused — clarity comes with patience.
But Wait, There's More! (Because There Always Is)
Now, the real world isn't a straight line, unless you're a drag racer. So, depending on which road you take (and how much you trust your GPS after that whole "scenic route" debacle last vacation), you're looking at a 20-minute to 30-minute car ride. That's less time than it takes to find a decent parking spot in either downtown area (seriously, those things are like mythical creatures).
QuickTip: Skim the intro, then dive deeper.

Public Transportation? You Do You, Boo
For the eco-warriors or the folks who enjoy a good game of "spot the interesting characters" on public transport, there's always the DART light rail. It'll take you a smidge longer, around 30 minutes, but hey, at least you can avoid traffic and work on your people-watching skills. Just be prepared for a slightly longer journey, but fear not, there's a good chance you'll witness something that will provide endless entertainment at your next social gathering.
QuickTip: Focus on one paragraph at a time.
The Verdict: Plano and Dallas - Practically Neighbors
So, there you have it. Plano and Dallas are closer than your grandma is to bingo night. Whether you're a speed demon in a car, a public transport enthusiast, or a crow with a serious case of wanderlust (doubtful, but hey), getting from one city to the other is a breeze.
Now, the real challenge? Finding decent barbecue in a city with more options than a Kardashian closet. But that, my friends, is a story for another day.
