Chesterton location next to Lake Michigan tempers the changes that we see. We are use to the cold weather but the lake helps keep the area warmer longer into the winter.  More

The real Houston

Not a great place

There's definitely lots of jobs/economic opportunity. It's quite racially diverse if that's your thing. Houston has awful urban sprawl. Expect awful traffic. Hot as hell  More
