Population decline
Over 10 years ago

I noticed that the population for this Flat Rock in the North has declined by 30%. Can anyone explain this. We are planning on moving to a warmer climate than the North  More

The real Houston
Over 4 years ago

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

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
