What is Dallas Urbanists?

We are a nonprofit created for and by people who care about making our city a better place to live, work, and play for everybody. We align with the New Urbanism movement, and we are an instance of what Strong Towns calls a "Local Conversation", whose purpose is to connect nearby, like-minded advocates to put Strong Towns ideas into action where we live.
