Very nice area
Over 19 years ago

I have lived in the Chicagoland area for over a year and a half and have not been overly impressed. I moved to Vernon Hills in May and have renewed faith in the area.   More

The real Houston
Over 3 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

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
