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

All the signs are in Chinese, Korean or Vietnamese. It feels like you're in Asia. Housing is crazy, $500,000 for a house that is 60 years old. Life here is expensive  More
