Good info and all of it is true. I'm a native Houstonian having grown up in Sunnyside. Things have changed dramatically but I still wouldn't live anywhere else. Now...it's the suburbs for me.
I have been entertaining the thought of moving to TX and I stumbled across your videos and I have been getting quite a bit of information and I've especially been enjoying the tours of the different cities. I think I've watched almost all of your videos. I didn't know much about master planned communities we don't have them where I live, but it was very informative to know that these communities are built strategically so they don't flood. Thank you so much for this information!
Welcome aboard! I hope to hear you ultimately decide to make Houston your home. Let us know when you're ready to discuss the real estate market here and begin searching for your next home... Please feel free to schedule a live zoom call >>> calendly.com/luxuryboss_zoomcall
OMG!!! I am not from here, but have been living here since 2013. I researched before I moved, but now that I've been here we have had some disasters and it's driving me crazy. However, I LOVE HOUSTON. I MEAN LOVE HOUSTON. Started researching Vegas. But now that you explained the master plan. I think I might stay (lbvs). Thanks for the good content. You were on point.
I’ve lived here my entire life for 29 years. Went to college in Huntsville for 5. But I have been considering relocating to Dallas because my sister moved there and said it’s so much nicer than Houston and it doesn’t flood and have the crime as much. Just so used to life here though.
Hello James. I suggest going to Dallas for a week or two and then determine whether or not you think it's better than Houston. The cost of living and housing prices there are much higher. Not worst than Austin, TX, but alot worst than Houston.
@@jamesjones-bd8lf Yes sir. Very much so... I do have some great realtors in the Dallas area that I could connect you with to help you w/your research if you like. Just let me know - (281) 830-6378 / calendly.com/luxuryboss_zoomcall
I grew up in east Houston but now live in north west Houston and as bad as I hate to say it anything east of downtown is rough , head for Katy, cypress , or Tomball
I moved here a year ago for work. It was impossible to acquire a rental home regardless of the fact I was qualified and had the income. You have to BID on rental properties. People from LA and New York with bigger incomes beat you out. The home could be listed at $1,500 per month, but if people with way more money than you outbid you, you're out of luck. I was barely able to acquire an apartment. After living here for a little while, I discovered the road rage and the VERY high crime. Watching the 5 o'clock news was like watching an episode of The First 48 EVERYDAY!! I stopped at a gas station on my way to work and someone attempted to break into my car at 7 A.M. IN THE MORNING!!! There are many rough areas and it's just plain dangerous. You have to pay the money to live where it's safer. People aren't friendly. Many of the schools are HORRIBLE with student misbehavior. This is NOT a place to raise your kids unless you're pretty well off and you can afford to live in the better areas. Needless to say, I'm gone. I will NEVER return to Houston to live.
@Tee No Matter what anyone says, Houston's weather conditions are, virtually, Tropical; just because Houston gets 4-8 weeks/year (from the end of December through the end of February) of temperatures between 50-70 degrees Fahrenheit (i.e. the weather conditions are, actually, becoming mild/pleasant), It, Absolutely, Does Not Mean that Houston has four seasons (i.e. temperate) climate conditions!!!
All great points. I'm from Port Arthur. Relocated to Katy for 4yrs, relocated to Denver (wrk purposes) and I'm on my way back to "The H" this summer. No place like home...bad traffic, hurricanes and construction on all the major highways and ALL
9:24 actually we now have Alaskan winters. I had to cancel 2 conventions this year in Jan & feb because hell froze over & the trip would be too hazardous. In 21 we had the horrible power outage during the worst freeze in Texas history.
Thank you for the information. My husband and I are looking to relocate to the Houston Area. I was glad that you mentioned the neighborhoods where not to move too. I saw new homes that were being built in Sunnyside and Acres Home with the understanding that was considered the hood. I hope you plan on doing another video of the places to live in Houston and also what is a planned community.
Thank you for the comment and follow Danyelle and I'm very pleased that you found some value from the video! Please feel free to watch any of the other videos on some great areas of Houston to relocate to. I highly suggest the Sugar Land, TX, Pearland, TX or Cypress, TX as part of your search. And please do not hesitate to reach out to me for a call, text, ZOOM call etc for a more detailed conversation on you and your husband's real estate goals.
I am looking into the Houston area, suburbs outside of it. I want to join a church in that area that I LOVE. The Light House with Pastor Keion Henderson.
Sounds good! My team and I are here to help in any way. Schedule a virtual call and let's chat about your move to Houston. Click the following link to schedule the call >>>>> calendly.com/luxuryboss_zoomcall/30min
I love the friendly people of Houston while visiting and the melting pot. It's one thing to have diversity but another to be mixed-up. The living is good as well (cost of living to income ratio) You mentioned everything from pollen pollution to poverty and crime to keep Houston off my list of cities to live in. I would probably suffocate with the heat and pollen combination. Thanks for your information. It has really helped me.
I am looking to relocate to Houston in the next year or so. I appreciate your video, it's very informative. I grew up in LA and I know exactly what you mean about 'where you probably wouldn't want to move your family'. I appreciate your honesty.

With all the inflation happening right now in the states, Houston is the best place to be right now. I lived in Houston for 8 years and also lived in Los Angeles for almost 3 years. Yes the weather is really humid and horrible but you will save a lot of money if you make the move. Just moved back from LA and never going back because of the cost of living.

@Jimmy Garza that's bad but trust me it's better. Houston the 4th biggest city in the country but Memphis is only 600,000 people & small. All the murders are occurring in a corner compared 2 Houston. Again, not saying it's not bad

Appreciate you keeping it 💯 and really going in detail about each of your points. For me, a realtor keeping things honest on the good/bad would get my business instead of one that just sugar coats things. I’ve never been to Houston myself other than layovers at the airports, which doesn’t really count. I’m not considering moving there (I’m trying to escape the heat and humidity!) but I’m still interested in visiting the area before making any kind of judgements. Anyways, thanks for the video and keep up the good work!

I spent 9 months in east and south Africa and east Africa was fairly mild maybe 80degrees at most but it rained almost everyday at exactly 3pm it was Uganda a third world country and had better drainage than we do
People who have never been to Africa imagine that the whole continent is as hot as the Sahara desert…. African continent is very diverse in terms of climate and everything else… I’m from Kenya and I live in the tea growing highlands just outside Nairobi, it gets super cold, then you drive 6 hrs North from Nairobi and it’s super hot
That's interesting knowledge that you've shared, thank you! My perspective was gleaned from my literal African friends who are transplants to the states though. It's cool that you are from Kenya because my best friends just visited there last Summer and said they had an amazing time. Thanks for the comment and follow!
#1 REALLY! 😂 ... Seriously though, great video. You covered some perspectives I haven’t seen before regarding Houston. It’s moving up higher on my list for places to retire to.

Thank you for the kind words and follow! I'm just glad that it has helped to make your choice more concrete and educated. And to answer your question, we do it all! We represent to Sell, Buy and lease, Residential properties. We also work with commercial properties... When are you planning to relocate to Houston?
West University, South Houston/Medical Center South area, Pearland, TX, The Greater Heights, Upper Kirby, etc. are great areas to start the search. Reach out to me and let's do a zoom call so I can show you virtually some houses and areas to choose from.
Yea weather sucks. But money is good down here. Never have a problem with money. Been here 27 years. Not to bad. If you can handle the heat and the mosquitoes. Lol
Don’t forget we also have stand your ground laws and castle doctrine, meaning we have the right to protect ourselves and our property from intruders by using deadly force if necessary.
You are 100% correct. For some odd reason, that got edited out of the video. I probably was tired from talking during those takes and it got edited out! LOL but thx for mentioning here!
It amazes me how many people care about the zoning laws because they make the city look "ugly" (it doesn't in my opinion, it makes it better bc you can live in a normal house/apt but have access to safe parks and areas almost no matter where you live) but for some reason NO ONE MENTIONS THE LITTER PROBLEM. It is freaking absurd how much litter there is. I have never seen so much trash in my life. The city is covered w it.
Well when you're a Houston native, it's a thing! Not to mention we weren't in a dangerous situation obviously. You'd have to be there to understand I suppose.
I would love you expertise, I’m looking to move to an apartment complex in Houston called stadia med main near Richmond, TX I think. Nervous about the crime, is that in the 5th ward?
This was awesome!! Of all the research and video watching I have done, this was by far the best. I currently work as a RN and I am looking to relocate to Houston. I'm so over snow and In dire need of some sun and heat!!😂😂 I don't know if I want to purchase a home right away though. I could really use some assistance with apartment hunting. Again, great video!!

My wife and I are thinking of relocating to Houston from the Jacksonville, FL and I really appreciate the straight forward information and in depth info about the city. We are not strangers to the heat and humidity as it’s exactly the same where we live now. We just want to move and start something new. Very informative and detailed. Thanks!
Totally my pleasure Eric... If you're thinking about making the move to Texas, then pls by all means give me a call, shoot me a text, send an email or my personal fave; schedule a live Zoom call. calendly.com/luxuryboss_zoomcall Thanks for the comment and follow
Make the move man. We moved from TX to Gainesville FL and we are looking to head back soon. Jacksonville is a shit hole compared to TX. Yeah I said it. Moving back to FL was a huge mistake.
Moving to Houston and purchased a new investment home in Fifth Ward less than a mile or two from the East River Project. Do you foresee the area growing in the next couple of years?
It's currently growing as it's begun the early stages of Gentrification. It's still a great deal away from being more like 3rd ward, but I would say it's safe to say it will continue to see increased town home development and gentrification overall over the next decade.
Had 2’ of water in my house in Harvey other than that freak flood I’m doing good about to sell the house that flooded for 100k more than I got it for in. 16
Understood... I'm a Compass agent, so if you are in need of highly effective listing agent, please do not hesitate to call... calendly.com/luxuryboss_zoomcall
Every hurricane/ts is different. Ive been through a bunch since Alicia. Some are wind events....some are rain events. Ike for example...was a wind event. Knocked down a lot of trees and poles. Structures were damaged...but there wasnt widespread dangerous flooding. Harvey and Allison were rain events...
@@HoustonTexasLiving All jokes aside I really do appreciate it. I plan on moving in 18 months. I am looking so early for two reasons. 1. I was deciding between ATL, Dallas, and Houston. Now it's more like Houston and Dallas (cost of living and before this video because of ATL's traffic). I will be staying in Galveston for 5 days and Houston for 2 days starting on April 10th. I am bringing my wife and 7-year-old twins to check things out and see what neighborhoods and school districts are good for us. If the verdict is Houston I definitely want you to be my realtor. I love your content and attention to details. Keep going my brother!
My college classmate has been in Houston for 20 years. He said Houston "is popping!" I have another college alum who's from Houston, and she talks a lot about the city. Speaking of "African heat," in the early 80s, a young teenager from Nigeria was at Kennedy Airport, in New York, and asked an airline employee what is the most similar city to Lagos. The young man was told to go to Houston. For 40 years, Hakeem Olajuwan has done pretty well....!
Very informative video man. Looking to move out of LA after my son graduates high school. Been going back and forth between researching Dallas and Houston. Definitely subscribed 👍🏾
I live in Cali & Dry heat is so bad for our lungs, eyes & skin. I suffer from severe dry eye issues, it gets so bad i have to use drops constantly & a humidifier at night its so annoying. My Doctor told me to move to the south because my eyes would have more moisture. im just scared of alligators 😩🥺😂

I visited Houston this weekend. Thinking of moving there from NYC as I have a job offer but these reviews from native Houstonians make the city sound awful.

Well I can tell you why you shouldn’t move to, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Washington DC, Baltimore, Atalanta, Tampa. While I currently live in Houston. 😅I’ve lived and worked in or near to all of them. And I have to say houston is the place I have earned the most money. I have climbed faster here economically than any of those other places. I would never return to any of those places ever! So I’m not sure why you aren’t finding success, but self determination and hard work are needed and not laziness. Some people think forty hours a week is hard work. 😂 Houston has relatively cheaper gas than the rest of the country by far. We have better paying jobs. And homes are cheaper than the top twenty most populated cities in the United States. So your getting more for your money. Now if you don’t care about money, than yes stay away from Houston and go to Chicago, LA, Portland, New York, where rents and homes are twice as high. Along with those high prices come with high violent crime rates. Sky high taxes plague those top cities in other states besides texas.
Lmao Texas is cheaper and has a good population. But come down here and help not destroy, we don’t need all the crimes and gangbangers. Because houston got lots of gangs that cam from Cali

@@karmathephoenix2474 where'd you go that has friendlier people? I'm in Dallas and I think the people are awfully entitled and stuck up but I got a good impression the times I went to Houston.
@@desinysmith6115 Believe it or not, New York City, New Haven Connecticut, Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Nashua New Hampshire, Montpelier, Vermont, White River Junction, Vermont, Kennebunk, Maine, Wells, Maine, Bar Harbor Maine, Palm Coast, FL, St. Augustine, FL, Key West, FL, Belmont, California, Santa Cruz, California, San Mateo, California, Carmel, California & Tucumcari, New Mexico there are very friendly people around these parts, except for California, somewhat friendly.
I agree. Houston is something to deal with between the floods, rude drivers, traffic and crime. Its a bear. I love the video though but I am a Native and you can't dress up Houston, depending on what your preferences.
I'm 32 and I was born and raised in Houston. All I can say is don't move here. Housing used to be cheap and now it's not plus there are too many people and fucked up roads.
Honest question: why the encouragement to avoid moving into predominantly black neighborhoods? I know the crime element exists, but I’m seeing gentrification taking place in ‘our’ devalued areas; fast forward 10 years and now ‘we’ can’t afford to buy in our own neighborhoods. Let alone theirs. Example: Acres Homes. I own 2.5 acres there and wasn’t willing to build there 10 years ago because of crime then. Fast forward now, I could never buy that same plot of land for what it’s assessed (taxation) at today. New town homes (acreage being built up monthly into moderately priced housing); in that area, only two miles up the road from Oak Forest/Garden Oaks are selling for $400k. Mind you, these townhome communities are put on 2k square lots each. People that can’t afford the $1.3M homes in Oak Forest/Garden Oaks are buying these properties and soon will eventually price out their poorer, elderly and depressed generational black neighbors. We will lose, once again, our opportunity to establish generational wealth, because others are playing the long game. We somehow believe the ‘white man’s ice is colder’, continue to move from our land where we were forced, driven, only allowed to live and they will continue to economically benefit from us. Buy low, sell high. Just remember how they sold up beachfront property (sold/given to former slaves) because you couldn’t grow crops on it. It had no agricultural benefit to them until they wanted to swim at these same beaches and have vacation homes. I wish/hope we begin to value what we have; we are steadily losing economic ground because we’ve lost sight of our black American ancestral struggle. They bled, sweated and died for land that we current generations see no value in. I worry for our future…😔
I find no issue with anything you've so eloquently stated, but my recommendation is based on several social or potential safety and educational issues pertaining to certain communities when it could potentially affect a transplant to the area. Additionally, my video content is meant to appeal to the needs of my specific niche demographic and not those of the masses (And they're not all black or African American contrary to popular belief). Thank you for the comment and hopeful follow. If you're still local, we should connect for lunch in 3rd ward sometime soon; my treat. Take care and God bless.
@@HoustonTexasLiving Hey, that’s pretty cool of you to reply to my message. Didn’t expect that, but grateful. I’d love to break bread with you. You name place and time and I’ll be there. 👍🏾
Ok @jada I need you to know that your boy would have warned you about the snakes if that were the "True Untold Story", lol... I'm sure there are some snakes somewhere out there, as this is Texas, but I can honestly say I have NEVER personally seen a snake in any of my houses in 41 years on earth here in Houston, TX. The only snakes I've seen up close and personal have been either at the local zoo or a friend's pet snake (crazy to think someone could have a pet snake). Actually, come to think of it, one of my current relo clients has 2 pet snakes.
Watch out for the people driving around with no drivers license and no insurance, and don’t even speak English, because if they run into you , you gonna come out of pocket .

Can’t forget the sorry ass job market here. Most warehouse and factory jobs up north start you off with a minimum $16.. hell here you can be a certified forklift operator and start off with $12 lol.. worst part about Houston besides the floods
@@khalilbashir7141 naw playa! I’m from Indiana and I can assure you the jobs pay more and the cost of living is more affordable! People pay 1000-1300 for a one bedroom in Houston lmao
Numbers say one thing but in my experience i dont find Houston to be all that crime ridden. Plenty of good neighborhoods in H Town and plenty of jobs. Its not hard to get out the hood here.

I moved here a year ago for work. It was impossible to acquire a rental home regardless of the fact I was qualified and had the income. You have to BID on rental properties. People from LA and New York with bigger incomes beat you out. The home could be listed at $1,500 per month, but if people with way more money than you outbid you, you're out of luck. I was barely able to acquire an apartment. After living here for a little while, I discovered the road rage and the VERY high crime. Watching the 5 o'clock news was like watching an episode of The First 48 EVERYDAY!! I stopped at a gas station on my way to work and someone attempted to break into my car at 7 A.M. IN THE MORNING!!! There are many rough areas and it's just plain dangerous. You have to pay the money to live where it's safer. People aren't friendly. Many of the schools are HORRIBLE with student misbehavior. This is NOT a place to raise your kids unless you're pretty well off and you can afford to live in the better areas. Needless to say, I'm gone. I will NEVER return to Houston to live.
Very informative video especially for someone like myself who has been thinking about relocating to Houston 👍🏽
@Tee No Matter what anyone says, Houston's weather conditions are, virtually, Tropical; just because Houston gets 4-8 weeks/year (from the end of December through the end of February) of temperatures between 50-70 degrees Fahrenheit (i.e. the weather conditions are, actually, becoming mild/pleasant), It, Absolutely, Does Not Mean that Houston has four seasons (i.e. temperate) climate conditions!!!

Thank you for the information. My husband and I are looking to relocate to the Houston Area. I was glad that you mentioned the neighborhoods where not to move too. I saw new homes that were being built in Sunnyside and Acres Home with the understanding that was considered the hood. I hope you plan on doing another video of the places to live in Houston and also what is a planned community.
Thank you for the comment and follow Danyelle and I'm very pleased that you found some value from the video!

I’ve never been to Houston myself other than layovers at the airports, which doesn’t really count. I’m not considering moving there (I’m trying to escape the heat and humidity!) but I’m still interested in visiting the area before making any kind of judgements.

It amazes me how many people care about the zoning laws because they make the city look "ugly" (it doesn't in my opinion, it makes it better bc you can live in a normal house/apt but have access to safe parks and areas almost no matter where you live) but for some reason NO ONE MENTIONS THE LITTER PROBLEM. It is freaking absurd how much litter there is. I have never seen so much trash in my life. The city is covered w it.

Don't do it bro these mfs hillbillies
Moving to Houston and purchased a new investment home in Fifth Ward less than a mile or two from the East River Project. Do you foresee the area growing in the next couple of years?
It's currently growing as it's begun the early stages of Gentrification. It's still a great deal away from being more like 3rd ward, but I would say it's safe to say it will continue to see increased town home development and gentrification overall over the next decade.
No place or city perfect just depends on preference

Well I can tell you why you shouldn’t move to, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Washington DC, Baltimore, Atalanta, Tampa. While I currently live in Houston. 😅I’ve lived and worked in or near to all of them.
And I have to say houston is the place I have earned the most money. I have climbed faster here economically than any of those other places. I would never return to any of those places ever!
So I’m not sure why you aren’t finding success, but self determination and hard work are needed and not laziness. Some people think forty hours a week is hard work. 😂
Houston has relatively cheaper gas than the rest of the country by far. We have better paying jobs. And homes are cheaper than the top twenty most populated cities in the United States. So your getting more for your money.
Now if you don’t care about money, than yes stay away from Houston and go to Chicago, LA, Portland, New York, where rents and homes are twice as high. Along with those high prices come with high violent crime rates.
Sky high taxes plague those top cities in other states besides texas.

Thank you for the comment and the follow.
Yea the roads are horrible because of subsidence. Richmond will mess your suspension up.
Honest question: why the encouragement to avoid moving into predominantly black neighborhoods? I know the crime element exists, but I’m seeing gentrification taking place in ‘our’ devalued areas; fast forward 10 years and now ‘we’ can’t afford to buy in our own neighborhoods. Let alone theirs. Example: Acres Homes. I own 2.5 acres there and wasn’t willing to build there 10 years ago because of crime then. Fast forward now, I could never buy that same plot of land for what it’s assessed (taxation) at today. New town homes (acreage being built up monthly into moderately priced housing); in that area, only two miles up the road from Oak Forest/Garden Oaks are selling for $400k. Mind you, these townhome communities are put on 2k square lots each. People that can’t afford the $1.3M homes in Oak Forest/Garden Oaks are buying these properties and soon will eventually price out their poorer, elderly and depressed generational black neighbors. We will lose, once again, our opportunity to establish generational wealth, because others are playing the long game. We somehow believe the ‘white man’s ice is colder’, continue to move from our land where we were forced, driven, only allowed to live and they will continue to economically benefit from us. Buy low, sell high. Just remember how they sold up beachfront property (sold/given to former slaves) because you couldn’t grow crops on it. It had no agricultural benefit to them until they wanted to swim at these same beaches and have vacation homes. I wish/hope we begin to value what we have; we are steadily losing economic ground because we’ve lost sight of our black American ancestral struggle. They bled, sweated and died for land that we current generations see no value in. I worry for our future…😔
I find no issue with anything you've so eloquently stated, but my recommendation is based on several social or potential safety and educational issues pertaining to certain communities when it could potentially affect a transplant to the area. Additionally, my video content is meant to appeal to the needs of my specific niche demographic and not those of the masses (And they're not all black or African American contrary to popular belief).
Thank you for the comment and hopeful follow. If you're still local, we should connect for lunch in 3rd ward sometime soon; my treat. Take care and God bless.

I'm sure there are some snakes somewhere out there, as this is Texas, but I can honestly say I have NEVER personally seen a snake in any of my houses in 41 years on earth here in Houston, TX. The only snakes I've seen up close and personal have been either at the local zoo or a friend's pet snake (crazy to think someone could have a pet snake). Actually, come to think of it, one of my current relo clients has 2 pet snakes.
Watch out for the people driving around with no drivers license and no insurance, and don’t even speak English, because if they run into you , you gonna come out of pocket .

That income tax is not high compared to tn
No income tax here in Texas thankfully, but we do have relatively high property taxes... Thanks for the follow and the comment. Let me know how we may be of service in helping you to buy / lease or invest in real estate here in the Houston area. >>> calendly.com/luxuryboss_zoomcall
I love texas but i hate humidity
ditto
where u from?
None in dallas. Only houston and the coast it's bad.
Can’t forget the sorry ass job market here. Most warehouse and factory jobs up north start you off with a minimum $16.. hell here you can be a certified forklift operator and start off with $12 lol.. worst part about Houston besides the floods
Im sure the cost of living is higher up north
@@khalilbashir7141 naw playa! I’m from Indiana and I can assure you the jobs pay more and the cost of living is more affordable! People pay 1000-1300 for a one bedroom in Houston lmao
Numbers say one thing but in my experience i dont find Houston to be all that crime ridden. Plenty of good neighborhoods in H Town and plenty of jobs. Its not hard to get out the hood here.
lots of cons not enough pros. promotes urban sprawl. and hot like hell most of the year where u cant breathe when u go outside.
Hi Christian, thank you for the comment.
