I also found this one http://houston1apartments.com/ helpful, but the natives will know more.

Thanks I really appreciate all of the help. I have tried 4 different apartment locators. They all gave me good info. but some of the places were either in bad areas, looked totally different from the way they were presented on the website, or was just too expensive. Those are the problems that I have been having.

Go to www.har.com and find a realtor and tell them the area, price you want

I'm curious as to what makes an area bad. Is it the presumed crime? The distance from your job? Because Houston is a very "industrial" looking city but there aren't a lot of areas I would consider to be "bad."

When referencing "bad", I mean unsafe, or high crime areas.
