It's a great city

Despite some of the Houston comments, I have found it to be a great city. Remember it IS a city not a small town. When I first drove into Houston I said where's the scenery? But then you discover it is green year round with constant blooming flowers, palm trees, and the ocean only 45 minutes away. All cities have crime and traffic. You need to find the right place to live. There are many affordable communities. Full of great restaurants, cultural events, colleges, medical care, recreation, etc. Can you ski here? Of course not! But people are constantly walking, jogging & biking in the miles and miles of paths. There are waterways and lakes close by and 127 golf courses. Theater, dance, opera and music. A newly revived downtown. When it's hot you are inside with the AC. but many months you are in your shorts and sandals and celebrating the fact that you aren't freezing in icy slush, layers of clothes, scraping the crap off your car, and wind of 50mph Knocking you down.
