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

I have lived in Fairfield for over 20 years. They have a village green that has really given the city a lot. A new library, arts center and shops. I enjoy Fairfield.   More
