RE: [DIY] Houston (Dowels)

 

Houston?  Traffic?  HOUSTON?? 

 

Man…anyone who complains about traffic there ought to try a week in the DC area.  We just beat out LA as the most congested area

In the entire US.

 

We live exactly 18 miles from work and *if* we leave before 6:45am, we can make it into work by 8am.  If it’s raining/snowing/auto accident/rubber necking/too sunny

etc., you can easily double or triple that.  During a snowstorm once, it took me FIVE HOURS to get home.

 

I need a drink.

It's always a bit funny when locals and even outsiders complain about the traffic in Houston.  It's one of the largest and most populated cities in America.  What do you expect!

There are a lot of beautiful, historical and even artsy areas of Houston worth seeing. 

Houston is a bit funny in that you can be on one street (say in River Oaks or the Heights) admiring the beautiful area and then go one block over and suddenly feel very unsafe.

Houston has a lot of beautiful parts, if you know where to look.  Like any big city, it has its industrial and slum parts.

 

I live in Pearland, which is a well planned and zoned city, separate from Houston.  I really like it.

You've nailed that one for sure.  Used to have to go down there once a month or so as part of my job.  It is not a city but instead the worlds largest hodge-podge and traffic jam.

Of course I find these deals because I live near Houston, a high price to pay.
