The city

Living in Houston, TX

Clock into the Texas Medical Center for world-class care, then head home to a metro where costs run about 1% below the national average and there's no state income tax. Two things locals insist you do: respect the brutal summer heat, and check neighborhood-level flooding and drainage before you sign a lease.
