I am from Pennsylvania and I was blown away by the cost of water. I live in the Brookshire Fulshear area in a new home and I pay $3200 a year mud tax and approximately $80 a month for water. In the Pittsburgh suburbs I was paying about $60 a month total. Total taxes for my $300,000 home including the mud tax comes up to around $7200 per year. Not to mention car insurance is expensive. I had two cars in Pittsburgh and was paying less than I’m paying for one car here. Also insurance for flood and home is a lot more. I do love the area however it is more expensive than what I was paying up north.

I live about just 47 mins 48 miles away from Katy. Me and my family love coming here because of the amazing variety of restaurants and the closest mall and amazing Movie Theater. Yeah the traffic but, know GPS can take you fastest and less crowded route...take it! Allow enough time to get to your destination of course.

Traffic is truely horrid!!! Never seen the like. And EXACTLY what he mentions that the drivers are not paying attention when sitting at red lights. When the light turns green GO!!!! don't just sit there. Also the lights need to be timed better so that left hand turn lanes get more than 3 cars through on a green and do not block the two through lanes. I moved here from Calif and I have to use my horn nearly every time I get on the road because drivers are NOT PAYING ATTENTION. The freeways are great, but they do not get you where you need to go, therefore everyone is on the surface streets.

which areas in katy have less flooding?
@livinginhoustontexas18 Жыл бұрын
So really I would say the master planned communities are going to give you the best chances because (in theory) they are designed to not flood. But I always like to check with insurance agents on flood zones because that is their area of expertise.
