Murphy, Texas is a quiet, family-friendly suburb with tree-lined neighborhoods, parks, local cafés and a low-key vibe—ideal if you want a peaceful home base between shifts while still enjoying neighborhood walks, weekend markets and short commutes.
You’re a short drive from Plano’s dining and shopping scene and about 25–35 minutes from downtown Dallas for major hospitals, museums, sports and nightlife, so you get a calm place to recharge with big-city options nearby.
