Location/Quality of Life - 7/8/2008

I have lived in Highlands, TX., since 1984. The location & traffic is good in relation to downtown Houston, Crosby, Baytown, Pasadena & even Beaumont &/or West Houston ... other places, too. I went to Manvel, Tx., the other day, took me approx. 45 min., about 50 miles. Also, twenty five minutes & your downtown Houston, 10 minutes to the San Jacinto Mall in Baytown! Highlands is a small community... I like that. There is also a good quality grocery store in Highlands, excellent pharmacy & plenty of gasoline at below national avg. prices. (I paid $3.87 @ gal. on 7/6/08.) I would think long & hard before moving from here. Also, real estate prices are good.[read more...]
