Relocating? This isThe Thread for YOU!

[SummerChild]

Hi Houston Lovers ,
Can anyone comment on the dating scene in Houston? In some places, which shall remain nameless lol, the number of AA single women greatly outnumber the number of AA single men - who actually date AA women. What's it like trying to date and settle down in Houston?

Also, if there are any attys practicing in Houston, what is it like there for AAs in firms or in-house?

Although Houston is bigger than Dallas, its easier to navigate in Houston than in Dallas. I love Houston. I love my the people, my church, the professionals, my chapter, who happens to be the BEST chapter in Alpha Kappa Alpha hands down, and the food!

Plus its closer to my home which is in Southern Louisiana!

Does anyone live in the York, Harrisburg, Hanover area of Pennsylvania? Hubby and I are talking about relocating. I am interested in school systems, private schools, things to do for black people, what areas not to live in and any other info that may be helpful.

If we move, hubby will be commuting to DC, which is why counties closest to the PA/MD line are what we are looking at.

Thanks!!

that is a serious commute! i know some people who live in that general area who commute to baltimore area... but i can't imagine pushing that extra hour (plus) to come all the way down to DC every morning.

there is a guy in my husband's office that commutes from westminister (carroll county) into dc. when hubby and i were looking at some of the builders (ie: ryan homes) the models that are going for over 300K down the street from me are going for b/w 130K and 150K right over the line. with what we make now, we could live very comfortably. its going to be an ongoing conversation. i refuse to be house poor. we are looking at the eastern shore and the shenandoah valley as other options.
