Native Houstonian here. I hate that housing has doubled in prices in the last 4 years. It used to be so affordable. I also never thought that Houston would be one of the most desirable places to live. Also it’s super hot here. lol.

For Houston to be such a large city it’s pretty impressive with the housing cost being affordable compared to the other large cities like Chicago and LA

Great video! Native here! Always remember: Houston is an hour away from Houston 😂

Absolutely! Houston's diversity is truly remarkable. This is great information!🥰👍

Let me add. We don’t have state income taxes but property taxes is truly expensive. My taxes were much cheaper in Atlanta compared to Houston.

amazing place to live and eat, unfortunately for me getting a job so far has been tough. Hopefully will find a job soon.

Awesome information. Houston is on my list of places to relocate too. Love the homes #1 in my eyes! Thxs..👏🏾

Born and raised Houstonian. Had to leave. Crap traffic and really uncomfortable weather. Can’t be miserable everytime you leave the house.

Thanks for providing this useful information!!

Lets mention low salary, lack of jobs unless you are in healthcare, gas or oil and energy. I am struggling deeply with this since layoff from my remote job in the Northeast. Regrets ...often.

Great information!

The best advice ❤

I enjoyed this video!

Great info! just subscribed coming there soon to check out the real estate to relocate. I just came across your channel

This has been very informative. Thank you so much. Not afraid of the commute, we are in SoCal. To get anywhere its over an hour on average.

If you don’t live in the inner loop you’re not in Houston, if it takes you 45 minutes to an hour to drive to the city you annt in Houston this is for anyone in the Woodlands, Sugerland, Pearland, Katy, Humble Cypress stop telling people you live in Houston you don’t

Just get ready for traffic.

I work in the Medical Center.

I like your channel. I work in the city but live in Conroe. Have been here since July 2021. I will mention a couple of cons from a relatively new Comer perspective. I'm originally from DC and from December 2009 have lived in Texas. I've done the whole Texas triangle. San Antonio, Austin, DFW and now Houston. You appear to have a good balance between pros and cons. A little googling may help others in their decision. As far as long term, the city is sinking. The air quality is a concern for myself and others due to the proximity of the largest oil refineries in the western hemisphere. On may 29th Houston was voted the dirtiest city in a recent article. Btw the public transportation is under major development and will much better in 3-5 years. I know this because of inside knowledge as I work for the system in the technical space (not a driver). Also I considered Houston while living in San Antonio and noticed that the wages in my field at least (electronic controls and automation) have not kept pace. An example is the average was 29-$34/hr 7 years ago, several people from Houston at the time and people now that I'm here say it was 18-$25/hr. Now it's 28- 38 so it's a a lot closer to the present average of $32-$43/hr. Lastly veterans will benefit from the housing as using VA, we don't have to pay mortgage insurance and can move in with very little to nothing down. A lot of new builds offer low or no closing.

Love H-town

Just don’t move here at all! Come visit but go back home!!

Alot of folks from other states especially in harris and let me tell ya all they is bad news drama running from the mess in another state bringing mess and they bad gang member kids pooping up our teams better watch them outsiders

Houston is not a great city, very over rated by native Houstonians! I was born and raised in Houston and bounced when I went off to college in 2004 in New Orleans and never left. Best decision ever, Houston lacks any unique cultural or history, its all very generic and similar to other cities established after the 1800s. Texas is too conservative, Greg Abbott is so mean, and the Republicans control the state. Yes Louisiana is a red state but I betcha we've had more Democrats as governors compared to Texas. Texas doesnt even have a casino. Lets not forget about the ridiculous strict liquor laws, and Houston has some of the highest number of drunk drivers compared to New Orleans. In New Orleans you can buy liquor from the gas station any day or time lol. Also Houston lacks southern charm or hospitality. Almost forgot about the wack Mardi Gras celebration in Galveston; it will never compare to New Orleans Mardi Gras not even Metairie Mardi Gras!!🤣🤣🤣🤣 Houston is a fly over city; never on anyones bucket list, please dont forget that.🤣
