Expensive is relative. Houston is actually affordable compared to many big metros in the area.

@M. Allen It depends on what side of town you're on and the time of day. If you're on the Southwest, and west, you're going to be in traffic. If you're on the east side you won't be. If you leave when everyone else leaves, traffic. If you wait 10 - 15 minutes, nothing.
@delorbb22983 жыл бұрын
@M. Allen depends on time of day. Morning rush hour, yes it's bad. But afterwards it's OK. You can always get an EZ-TAG to ride the HOV into and out of town. I think it's about $5 or less all the way down. Get a friend to ride with you and it's free.

You’re apartment looks nice for $1500 per month. Much cheaper than Metro Detroit. It seems like every major city I go to the traffic is annoying. I just got back from Houston on Monday night and loved it. Definitely want to relocate. I’ve been mid west my whole life,m and need a change. The Galleria mall is amazing 💓. Good video!

I lived in Houston for nearly two years. I can attest to traffic being awful. I didn’t experience any issues with crime probably do the fact I didn’t live in the city of Houston. I really wasn’t impressed with the food but that is because I’m from Chicago. In my opinion Chicago has some of some of the best food in the United States. I must say I can appreciate Houston, TX more for the diversity and better food options. Since relocating to Austin, TX. Austin is not the place to be if you want diversity and good food.

@pebblesgrayson3304 жыл бұрын
You’re welcome! It really depends on your job. I don’t wanna just say a wage & it may be way lower or way higher than what a company would offer for your position. In order for me to live in the city of Houston, pay my bills & still have money left over I need more than 30/hr.
@geneva43284 жыл бұрын
Perfect! That’s exactly the answer I was looking for. I live in dc and make over 30 an hr. Knowing this information gives me a better idea of how to set things up for myself. Thank you.

@faiththomas48384 жыл бұрын
I'm visiting in April during spring break so I wanted to know about diversity in the area, jobs (medical) and apartments. I know the school systems are great from reading the reviews online.
@pebblesgrayson3304 жыл бұрын
Houston is one of the most diverse cities in the country so I wouldn’t worry about that too much. Katy/Sugarland are the Suburbs so your neighbors will prob be older with families. As far as jobs it would really depend on your position. You could live in Katy/sugar land & commute to Houston. Houston has a whole medical center so I’d suggest you google “jobs in Houston medical center.” I know a lot of positions will pop up. In regards to apartments, Katy & Pearland apartments are cheaper than those in Houston but it really depends on how much you wanna spend. I had an apartment locator find my apartment for me. Would you like her contact info?

Hey girl, I heard there’s a roach problem in Htown... how has that experience been for you? I was so excited to plan my life there as I will be graduating nursing school, but honestly hearing about the roach problem is deterring me from my dream😖
@pebblesgrayson3304 жыл бұрын
I had a serious roach problem in my apartment, they would come spray almost once a week but outside wasn’t too bad. I’m from South Carolina so roaches don’t bother me too much. But I would let it stop you from moving here. The weather is way worse than the roaches.
@delorbb22983 жыл бұрын
You don't have to have roaches. Even if you're not the cleanest. Put down some boric acid powder and you won't see roaches.

Hi do you feel like The Woodlands is a diverse area? Also would you prefer yo live in Katy or The Woodlands?

I’ve only been to the woodlands once for a concert and it didn’t seem very diverse. I would def prefer Katy bc it’s much closer to Houston & it has a lot of really good restaurants & places to shop. The woodlands is wayyyy too far out.
