No city is perfect....

I'm a med student studying in another major city in the US and I plan on going back to Houston when I'm done. I can see why some would dislike Houston due to its weather, crime, etc; but realistically every major city throughout the US struggles with similar problems (i.e. Miami's heat is just as unbearable as Houston's, and I couldnt even imagine scraping ice off my windshield during winter). Like some of the previous posters have already mentioned, there are plenty of nice places to live (Sugarland, Pearland, Woodlands) with great schools and affordable housing. I think Houston is a wonderful city with a great deal of diversity and plenty to do. Furthermore, it makes me sad to read some of the posts that complain that of Hispanics only speaking Spanish and the need to know Spanish if you to move to Houston. Since when did fluency in a second language become a bad thing? Some of the previous posts have been absurd in regards to this issue. The only problem I have with Houston is the Texans...... I love em, but I wish they could win more games.
