My folks have recently moved to Cleburne... where is Rowlette in relation??

Department size? Pay structure? Paramedic required? Can you give some more details please? Thanks.

Rowlett's ENE of Dallas, next to Garland. It's probably about 60-65 miles from Cleburne. Travel time... well that all depends. I used to live in Grandview (near Cleburne) and drive to Fair Park and it took me about an hour.
