    Great Video. I completely agree with you concerns regarding Houston. I moved from California in 2022 to Houston - Katy , extreme weather, Centerpoint (less) is joke about reacting power restoring, insurance sky rocketing, Property taxes crazy too, Traffic its terrible..Thinking to relocate

    Not because of power, this time the power is super fast already. Last hurricane we didn’t have power for over 2 weeks.

    Leaving because of weather! Ha, ha, ha! I grew up in the Texas Panhandle. Let’s see. Weather!? Tornadoes!? In may 1970 a tornado snuck up at 1:00 am. Flattened almost the entire town. Killed 26 people. I moved to Houston in 1976. I have never had a hurricane sneak up on me.

    I’m moving out of Houston because of the crimes.

    Even Debbie Downer watched this video and said "DAMN!". Seriously, though - builders are offering generators if you build a new home with them now. Couldn't believe it when I saw it. lol. I still love Houston more than anything in Dallas. Can't wait to move back to Houston after almost 30 years. 🤣 To answer your questions. I'm only staying in Texas and moving to Houston to help my mom out. If it were up to me, I'd be out of Texas after having lived here my entire life. I'd pick Colorado, NW Arkansas, Tennessee, or the Carolinas. I'd pick the NE like around Maine, too, but I can't stand snow, so Colorado is probably a "no" now that I think about it since it gets a lot of snow and isn't nice on taxes. lol.

      That is in a bad hurricane area. No matter what, bad hurricanes will hit and knock trees onto power lines. As far as how long it should take to fix, it depends on how many lines were knocked down. Some blame should go to Centerpoint, but some of it is just mother nature.

    Infrastructure takes long term planning. The only thing our leaders plan for is being re-elected.

    This video is true. I am a native Houstonian and lived here over 40 years. The weather is the same. The poor planning by city leaders and extreme amount of construction growth is a severe problem. While certain areas always flooded, it was never this widespread. They over built and didn't plan. No one expected the huge influx of population we acquired after Katrina and the regular population growth then the influx that happened during COVID just kept piling on. I don't recognize Houston anymore. And the crime while they may say it has gone down, that is completely fudging the numbers and crimes being pleaded down. When they released all the "non violent" criminals from the jail bc of COVID our violent crimes shot up. I assure you in the 1980's and 90's people were not getting shot while driving down the freeway. It has become completely insane. I'm about 3 miles outside the city limit and I hate to drive into the city. And I now need to move further away bc the crime and all the stuff is spreading further out into all the suburbs

      Maybe paving all the soil over with concrete wasn't such a good idea. The water needs to go somewhere. It used to soak into the ground.

      More people need to be aware of Houston's poor city planning & over construction.
      Everyone thinks the Houston suburbs are the most beautiful utopian places in human history.
      But Houston suburbs are an abomination

    Can't really go anywhere else in the state though. Extremely and crappie politicians at any place. Plus a looming housing BUBBLE is coming in highly speculated Austin and even San Antonio. Dallas area homes dropping value too. Houston was at least flat. For the first time in a long time neighbors in Austin have beenb in foreclosures cause it's way too expensive and can't pay. A market correction is coming. So doesn't matter if your in Houston or other metros, might wanna think about moving to the country, lol.

      Who voted for those crappy politicians in Houston? If 57% of the people in the city aren't happy with their elected leaders, they have nobody to blame but themselves.

    yes im over the traffic here, response to inclement weather is horrible, never heard of completely losing power for weeks until coming here and overall lets be honest , Houston is ugly! Unless you are in the suburbs , the city is old, outdated, it looks like a 3rd world country , if you wish for anything decent here you gotta go out 35-40 miles Cypress, the Woodlands, Spring , last is that we are being priced out by outsiders … we cant compete with anyone from Cali, NYC … The only thing that keep me here is residing in Bridgeland its a very beautiful area but even its starting to become congested . Ive been doing some light researching of other potential cities to relocate , Im losing my love for Houston its changing a LOT

      I was born in the suburban countryside of Houston & I've grown to despise everything about it.
      I'd like to live in a more urban area like we see on TV

    Suburb is even worst of flooding and power outage; and many main road had only one lane, traffic is very bad in rush hour.
