Tyler Texas is unique in that our city is in a near central location to the rest of the United States. Without being in Kansas in the middle of the wheat field which would also be considered a central location we are a straight shot to Chicago, San Diego California, the beaches of Florida, and many other popular destinations. To top it off Texas and the city of Tyler have some of the cheapest real estate prices in the country. You can still move to Texas where there is no state income tax and buy a home lot for a few thousand dollars. I personally have bought lots in Tyler for $500 – $3000 and still have them to this day.
Beyond just being in a central location and buying land and real estate you can find fun things to do here for both seniors and young adults. For seniors Tyler has you covered with all the health and assisted living needs you could possibly imagine. We are king of a senior living mecca in the state of Texas. We have everything from alzheimer’s care facilities to a dozen different home health care companies. There are dialysis treatment centers that also double as senior living communities, senior transportation buses, and recreation clubs for older adults. The Cowan Center at UT Tyler campus offers exciting plays and celebrity speakers year round. Lets not leave out that we have nationally renowned hospitals in this city with break throughs in prostate cancer, Parkinson’s disease, lung diseases, and many other forms of cancer.
For young adults you have your pick among close to 1 million restaurants. OK not quite a million but you get the picture. There are also quite a few unique bars and clubs. Tyler Texas offers a few different putt putt golf recreation centers, a bowling alley, single church ministries attracting several hundred young adults every week, and an extremely nice South Tyler jogging and bike trail system.
There is a great young entrepreneur club available to join in Tyler for those opening their own business here or are just wanting to make some business connections. There are a few public golf courses with the best one considered to be Garden Valley Golf Club in Garden Valley near I20.
Some of the popular hang outs are “The Pub Down Under”, “Where’s Rufus”, “Clicks”, “Buffalo Wild Wings”, and “The Electric Cowboy”. If you aren’t into clubbing you will find that many of these venues offer a music venue that does not require the consumption of beer or slutty behavior. I personally enjoy the Kareoke at Buffalo Wild Wings. For a little action there are quite a few in home poker games throughout the city that are a lot of fun. Many good poker players make several hundred dollars a week playing in poker games in Tyler.
Tyler Parks and Recreation has multiple softball leagues both coed, mens, industrial, church league, and other combinations. If you are newly relocated to Tyler you will find that by simply going to Lindsey Park with a bat and glove in hand you can very easily get picked up by a team who needs an extra player. Some teams are really hurting for enough players and by giving an attempt by appearing at the practice fields and games you may very well get picked up. These softball teams are always in need of girls so girls will have no problem getting picked up by a team.
UT Tyler is a very hard university offering an amazing education in the fields of business, engineering, nursing, and several other related fields. I personally pursued my education at UT Tyler and can say that it is quite a bit more challenging than SFA University in Nacogdoches.
