We moved from Raymore a couple of years ago because there's nothing to do there. You have to drive into Lee's Summit, Mo or Overland Park, Ks. to find good eats and  More

We moved to Raymore seven years ago from south Kansas City. The school system in Raymore is far superior to that of Kansas City. Raymore is only 15 minutes away  More

The real Houston

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
