Review of Houston, Texas


Houston for Work
Star Rating - 7/9/2013
Very amazing reading everyone's reviews. I lived in Texas before, besides having terribly hot spring-summers, it also lacks the "culture" factor many discussed here. Right now I live in Brooklyn, and have heard on the news of people getting "knifed down" because of a smart phone. I guess crime is everywhere, so hearing about people getting their cars broken into sounds pretty normal to me. Heck! I even witnessed people being struck with violence on the subway stations, and I have gotten scare. Can't wait to finish college and move to Houston or Dallas. Having lived on the East Coast has been an eye opener, who said San Diego was expensive? Try NYC for once. Many argue that Houston or Dallas lack sophistication, but I'd tell New York has it all when it comes to things to do but you better make serious money to afford the opera, theathre, arts and all that.
