    LOL.. That's Sugar Land.

    Actually Sugar Land is more expensive than the Woodlands.. probably much safer and cleaner than the Woodlands.

    no pearland love here..? I live in pearland, we moved here a few years back. We live in a great neighborhood, gated community. Its nice and safe, and I dont have problems with it. The only argument I will throw in there is that traffic is a LOT worse in all the other suburbs (to downtown). Im talking about 'new Pearland' in comparison to sugarland, kingwood, woodlands, etc. The drive is RIDICULOUS. I've driven them all, and pearland is by far the shortest. No one can factually disagree with that. If I had to drive to Kingwood and back everyday, Id prolly go crazy.



    That being said, I used to live in West U, would move back in a second. ;)

    I wouldn't mind The Woodlands so much if not for that abortion that is I-45 North.

    Eastex FTW.

    To be fair, I think more people live in Sugar Land, thus the traffic is worse here.

    Highway 90 > Highway 288

    Granted I'm biased.

    I'm sure I'll get some peeps to jump on the KATY bandwagon. I won't say NORTH or SOUTH Katy, though. :eek: The entire city is awesome... 'cept for the places with old apartments... :(

    The Woodlands>Sugar Land>Katy>Champions>Pearland>League City/Friendswood.

    My small order. Though, if I'm a pro athlete and without a family (or just have a spouse), why not live in the Inner City in one of the many condos or closer in "suburban style" homes? I'd pick living in the Memorial area any day over the suburbs (especially with all the new stuff around Memorial City Mall).

    For a while, my sister lived in a gated trailer park in Pearland. That speaks volumes about Pearland.

    I grew up in Sugar Land. It's a lot closer than Woodlands.

    The traffic in Sugarland has gotten so bad over the years. I remember back in 1999 or even early 2000's, one could drive down hwy 6 in the middle of the day with barely any traffic. These days that is not possible.
    Plus the expansion of First Colony Mall has been horrible-traffic wise imho. (Terrible decision for customers like myself, for them to move the Barnes & Nobles to its new location in the Mall complex, but I'm guessing it's a good business decision for them).

    I'll still take Sugarland FTW.

    I grew up in Inwood, near Acres Homes. Now it's ghetto all over.
    As for Sugar Land, Woodlands, etc... technically those are exurbs... not suburbs.
