I have lived here 4 and half years in Farmington Greens subdivision. It started out nice. I picked it because it was close to Station Park which we did enjoy. Great  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
