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

Auburn is a nice town but a busy place. The growth in Auburn has been extreme in the past 20 years. You can do anything in Auburn you can think of within a few miles.  More
