Baylor Scott & White Health is the largest not-for-profit health system in Texas — and one of DFW's largest employers with multiple hospital campuses across the metroplex. BSW employees (physicians, nurses, technicians, administrators) face a unique home-buying challenge: the hospital system's campuses span from downtown Dallas to Plano to Fort Worth to Waxahachie, meaning neighborhood recommendations differ dramatically based on which campus is your primary workplace.

Campus location: 3500 Gaston Avenue, Dallas TX 75246
