Nice, with caveats.
Over 7 years ago

Residents since 1990. Pros: The weather is exceptionally mild. We find it a very inexpensive, convenient, and laid back place to live. North Bend has an airport (OTH)  More

I moved to Houston from the San Francisco Bay area in 1991 after college but I have always had family here. Houston is not what you think of when you think of Texas  More

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
