    That's what I was about to post. I think Houston is a great place to raise a family. Go away to college maybe and see some different things and then come back here and raise your family. Rinse. Repeat.

    That's what I plan on doing. I am in Colorado for school, and when I am done, I plan on coming right back here. Can't get better than that imo.

    that's exactly what i did....came back for my rockets season tix!!!

    i thought the pics were good, i like the song personally, but they could've put a lot more other photos like memorial park, race tracks, st. arnolds, japanese tea garden, medical center buildings, etc. too many downtown and freeway shots, however, i did like the downtown shots. after you work there, you can really appreciate it. :)

    Lived in all HK, LA and Houston but San Jose (the fourth city I have lived in) is better than those places.

    Nice weather (kinda dark, rains often but not that often, has actual seasons instead of sunny all the time like Houston or LA), clean air (unlike Houston or LA), not much traffic (only during rush hour, and not as bad as Houston or LA), chill women. Love that place.

    i've basically spent every summer there from when I was born till now (i'm 19) and I cannot stand the place. The weather is great, but I am bored out of my mind there.

    I was born in Chicago.....but I was raised in Houston, the only thing I hate is the weather, but besides that it's pretty cool ;)

    I've been to Dubai 3 times in the past 2 years, and I gotta tell you that it's the single most overrated city in the history of human civilization.. Tall buildings! yay!

    Been all over this planet and I love home (Houston) more than anywhere else. The only thing now is that I'm addicted to traveling and don't know if I can stay anywhere too long anymore. I would want to live in Spain for a while, but plan on moving back to Clutch City and settling down for a while at some point. Maybe when I'm starting a family.
