[quote]just hate how HOU has no zoning laws.[/quote] This is actually what I like about Houston, I mean unless it's a plant or something. I liked being able to walk to a convience store and my kid's daycare....
[quote]I’m about to buy a 9 year old truck for 10k. It’s got 90k miles but it’s in great shape.[/quote] That's actually a really good deal. I can't find a decent sized truck with less than 150k miles for that price....
Dogs are funner, cats are easier. I lived in a one bedroom apartment from 18-30. Dogs were out of the question....
I like Fort Worth more too but that commute to my office in Plano was too brutal....
[quote]The whole area is best described as fake. [/quote] It's generic suburbia, most of the area was built after the 60's. [quote]Science was WAY behind. Math was on par once in middle school, seriously behind in grade school. Reading/spelling was something you completely taught your kids at hom...
[quote]Colleyville [/quote] My wife is from there, it peaked in the late 2000's. It's not appreciated as much as Grapevine, but still isn't a bad plac [quote]Las Colinas[/quote] Great location but nobody with kids wants to move there because Irving ISD is awful....
[quote]Thats where we are. Love it and we aren't moving. Its already built out, everything we need is 15 minutes away, no traffic, great schools and phenomenal parks and rec centers. It has a great small-town feel. Every house I've seen go up for sale is gone in a week for over asking price so it's ...
[quote]Detroit surprisingly has some pretty awesome suburbs [/quote] I know, almost moved there for a job with a Big Auto contractor in Oakland County. It made the Northshore look like a trailer park. ...
[quote]know and I agree. I’m saying more about people judging the whole area when they just visit the actual inner city.[/quote] A lot of people do that. A lot of people on here will call places Chicago, Detroit, or LA shitholes because of a social media post they saw and not understand why peopl...
[quote]I've been on here for 12 years and have never seen that[/quote] It usually comes up once or twice anytime there's a thread about the state's economy. Not saying all or even most but they definitely exist. I've heard a handful of Louisiana people say this in person too....
[quote]The fact that many call Ex-Louisianaians "traitors" for moving out of state for a better life for them and their family tells you all you need to know....[/quote] There's boomers on here that will blame the state's decline on Xers and Millenials moving to Texas. Not the bad policies, nepot...
Former resident of Allen here, would go back in a heart beat if my parents didn't need help. If I can find a decent job and a house with granny flat, I'm leaving Lafayette as soon as possible. I can deal with the traffic and big city as long as there's plenty of jobs and a government that is func...

We're better at everything than them as long as it doesn't involve running....

[quote]don’t live in Louisiana, but this idea of urban decay is the exact opposite of what’s happened in Tennessee. 20 years ago downtown Nashville was basically half of what it is now. Downtown Knoxville was almost dead. Areas like East Nashville were dangerous and North Knoxville had very few busi...
There's a shortage of housing in places that have jobs. It was easy for me to find an affordable house in Opelousas, not so much in Houston....

I have 4 1.) If your house is flooded or blown down more than once, it's on you. The state should buy out about 10% of the state's housing stock and allow the wetlands to take over. 2.) Get rid of the income, franchise, and inventory taxes but replace part of it increase in sin taxes. 3.) Giv...

[quote]His handling of the LSU women's basketball team checked both boxes.[/quote] He's "far right" about social issues boomers get excited about. Hasn't really done anything conservative about the budget or the economy yet, you know stuff that actually matters....
