Default Picking a flight school

I'm finding myself motivated to take a few lessons and I'm getting
conflicting opinions as to how to pick a flight school. As you can see from
my moniker, I'm from Dallas and Addison Airport has quite a few schools.

One opinion was that Addison was a good choice because they'll have more
modern aircraft and more proficient schools.

The other opinion that seems to make sense is to pick a flight school
outside of the city in a rural area to get away from the traffic and the
Class B airspace. I could see how you could burn up a lot of your time on
the taxiways at Addison and once in the air, use up more time getting to a
practice area. I'm afraid that I'd only get 30 minutes for my hour.

Opinions?
