Fate ranks high as one of the best suburbs in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolex. Situated less than 30 miles northeast of Dallas on the eastern side of Lake Ray Hubbard, Fate is an idyllic suburb full of contemporary homes, large lots, and spacious rentals. This is mainly a residential area, but the lack of restaurants and shopping centers within the neighborhood means you can enjoy the peace and quiet the comes with living outside the city. Interstate 30 will ferry you towards the lake and the sprawling retail center near the water, or all the way into Dallas — only a 30-minute drive — if you want to experience the amenities of the city.
