ok for Texas - 3/31/2011

spring gets the best of most worlds in Houston, proximity to city, medical, cultural. cost of housing is good, neighborhoods are established, traffic is fair. there is the issue of increasing crime, it is not in Spring yet, but it is all around the immediate area and the urban push is moving and pressuring it into spring, that is an issue for the near future. Overall I live here because my job stays here, it is the only reason I am still in Texas. I am well bribed for now to stay. and of the houston Metro area where i have lived on all sides, Spring gets my vote. [read more...]

I loved living in Spring, TX - 2/16/2011

My husband and I relocated from Dallas to Spring in 2005. We bought a home here on the border of Spring and The Woodlands and have enjoyed it so much. Spring feels like you are in the country with the small town feel but you are a 25 minute ride from downtown Houston to the south and the gorgeous suburb of The Woodlands to the north. Tons of things to do here with shopping, restaurants and excellent schools in the Klein ISD school district.Spring is close to the George Bush Intercontinental Airport (15 minutes)and has great hospitals and doctors. If you want to live near Houston but not in Houston..Spring is an awesome choice. It is a great place for families with so many choices of things to do. It is just about an hour and half from the beach in Galveston. The only drawback is the summers and the humidity..lots of humidity! [read more...]

Cost of Living - 12/2/2009

Although the cost of homes in the Spring(Houston) area is very low compared to many other large cities in the US, the Property Taxes here are very high. My taxes are 3% of my Property Value, but we don't have an Income Tax (yet).[read more...]

a little piece of Texas - 10/22/2007

Spring is a great place to be if you're in Harris County, Texas. You have the best of being in the middle(literally)of the City(Houston) and the Woodlands to select and choose all the restaurants, activities, you wish. You can live in a nice place, low cost of living, great schools and not get caught up in the "huge city" atmosphere of Houston, yet be close enough to drive in if you choose. You have the best of all worlds..restaurants, 1 of the best medical centers in the World, lots of job opportunities and a decent place to raise a family. You won't appreciate all it has to offer until you move away to a place w/none of its convenience, outlets, shopping and most of all a blend of people and lots of friendliness! downfall,the humidity and heat but on a brighter note, that humidity is good for your skin!!! So if you need to live near Houston but can't afford the inner city, choose Spring! If you need a realtor, call me! Mary Ann Lipsey[read more...]
