Why complain if you're the one who decided to move

I was born and raised in Houston. Have lived in NYC, PDX, ATX, and then left the country. Came back to living in Texas but way down in the valley. I won't get started on this place, but if you think Houston is miserable, give this place a try. You'll be ready to go back to Houston.
Anyway, I have always said that if you aren't from Houston, you shouldn't ever go there. If you know people and it is the environment you grew up in then you will have learned to like it. I'm not sure why anyone living in California, Oregon, Colorado, etc would ever pack up and leave to live in Houston. Of course you will hate it!! It's hot, full of people, and concrete. I think that you are dumb for leaving where you came from and that is why you are mad and blaming it on Houston. Just stay out of the south. Houston has everything you could ever want in a city. And since the job market is solid hopefully you will have a high enough paying job to escape every once in a while to the mountains or whatever you like.
Basically all I want to say is that if you aren't from Houston then maybe you should stay away.
