Darn Soror Wonderful you beat me to it... but to reiterate Houston is a great place to live and prosper in your career, any career. There are so many young Black intellectuals and professionals in Houston and the surrounding areas. There are 5 major Universities in the city of Houston (Rice University, Texas Southern University, University of Houston, Houston Baptist University, University of St. Thomas) if you want to further your education. Houston is also melting pot having residents from probably every corner of the world. The night life is great if you're into that. There are numerous festivals and events that occur every year (Houston Livestock and Rodeo, Jazz Festival, International Festival, Cajun Fest, and many more) so there's always something to do. Come on to the Bayou City Soror RD!!! The traffic is everything that you've heard... but you get use to it.
Once you learn I-45/ I-610/ I-59 and Beltway 8... driving is a breeze. And I love my Brothas from the The-H.. but you gotta watch them, sometimes they think they're prettier that you are.

I love Houston, at first I hated it....it was wide and I didn't have friends or family but now so many people have moved here and the cost of living is great. Its city but still country, large, diverse and you can do anything you want, in the 5 years we have lived here we have had a SuperBowl, World Series, Baseball and basketball All Start game, etc. Its a great place for young educated African Americans, and there are plenty of suburbs that are within 5 minutes of Houston!
