...actually hates Houston? Please tell me why, if you do. I absolutely hate it but I am in a position where I can't move, yet. You know those bumper stickers you have seen that say "I wasnt born in Texas but I got here as fast as I could" yeah, I have one in my head that I want to be on the back of my car. It says "I was born in Texas, but I'm leaving as fast as I can". lol Though I do hate Houston I also hate the state it resides in. Discuss, just give me reasons why.

I moved from utah, I dont hate houston but I dont go there much but one thing i dont like about texas is that you cant see any scenery, you look anywhere and there is trees in the way...up north you can look a 100 miles and still see mountains and land...on and on, thats what i hate about texas

Yes in texas thats about all you will see. Austin is alot more pretty than Houston but still does not compare many other states.

Its funny that you say that. My mom was born and raised in Illinois and so Im told was much like me in wanting to leave quickly, she did. She moved here, Texas, with my father who is also an Illinois native. They had me, got divorced, bla bla bla, ancient history. Anyway, almost 2 years ago, she moved back to Illinois, and back to the same small town she was born and raised in. I may say I hate it now and miss it later but I know now a big city is way differant than a small town. millions of people compared to 3500, yes 3500. I hate this city and more so Texas. I hate the heat, the humidity, the flat terrain, the over abundance of illegal aliens, pine trees, murder rate, katrina "victims", one could go one and on. Thats just Houston. I think I would be much happier in a small town thats semi close to a big city. The best of both worlds. Now, by small town I don't mean wranglers, old farm trucks and cowboy hats. I mean small town, houses, friendly people, quiet, almost no crime, real clasic american values and beliefs, etc.

Oh, sorry, Hello!!! laugh

i REALLLY miss Houston...I know that on occasion, I took the place for granted, but truly, i cant wait to go back...even if its for a visit! I miss my cowboys (literally...not the team), I miss that southern hospitality, and the fact that the people in Houston, or in Texas in general, say hi to you even if they dont know you. Yeah, the view here in Vegas is nice...surrounded by snow capped mountains, but I would leave this place in a minute to get back to the country! Im not a city gal.

Hello all!
