    I live outside of Houston but commute out there daily. I hate the construction everywhere. The traffic is horrific. My number one advice is DO NOT ENGAGE INTO ROAD RAGE. A lot of these drivers are trigger happy and they drive loaded. Welcome to Texas.

    I remember when Houston did not have a lot of traffic. You can get to the other side of Houston in 30 mins flat. The only traffic was going toward downtown during morning going to work and in the afternoon coming from work on freeways like southside 59 and 1-10 during peak work time 7-9 am and 4-6 pm. Now, traffic is everywhere no matter what time of day it is on all freeways. Also, not everyone here are not from Houston. A Texas license plate does not mean they are from Houston. In the last 5 or 6 years traffic has become terrible because so many people from different states are coming to Houston, Austin, and Dallas. I use to love the trees, open spaces, and big front & backyards. Now snakes and other critters will come out because they are building too many homes, building, etc.. They evading the critters space and they have no where to go. Go to Austin area if you want hills and mountains or Dallas for hills.

      You're right about the traffic, I rarely meet anyone from Houston anymore and all the accidents are definitely due all the different driving styles. I've been here my entire life and have finally decided to leave... too much crime, too many people and the weather seems to be getting worse every year.

      I am moving by myself. I understand where your coming from. I'm not sure if you go to church. If you do, find you a church family and I recommend visiting too if you can. I’m moving back to Houston. One thing I can assure you is that you will not be the only new person moving. The United States is having a big problem with Human Trafficking. We have to stay prayed up and we as Black people have to support each other and uplift one another.

    I've been looking at a lot of homes in Houston lately but this is the third video I've listened to on amber alerts and human trafficking. I have two little girls and honestly I'm always paranoid about something like that happening to my kids. It would be so awesome to see another video on this made by you guys and what places you might avoid or more precautions you take now in comparison to when you lived in Chicago.
    P.S. I just found your guy's channel and I really like it! You both are so kind and seem like really good people. I feel like we're probably very similar as far as like mindedness goes!

      Some areas in Houston do not flood actually. You just have to do research I live here all my life and never got flooded. You can do research when you are planning to buy a house out here and maybe even consider getting flood insurance. Also hurricane/tropical storm can be bad best option is stay in the house unless it’s a mandatory emergency. But other than that the flooding isn’t too bad.

    Born & raised in Houston
    5. Traffic - Facts/ Houston is the 4th largest city in the US and cars are our main source of transportation. Also, we have a lot of diversity in the city so everyone driving skills are different. You can also factor in what side of town you stay on.
    4. Bugs - Ehh/ I can speak for other cities because I'm not from there but IMO the bugs aren't that bad maybe because I grew up here. However, in the summer the lizards are out in full effect, its like a gang of those things. I've never had a problem with snakes. I would see a grass snake here and there but nothing dangerous are venomous. Just make sure you're getting your home exterminated at least quarterly.
    3. Land - Facts/ H-Town is all flat land. If you're moving to Texas & enjoy scenic views than Austin or San Antonio would probably be best for you. Now in regards to water inside the city you want see any water but if you go to suburban neighborhoods than you can live in wonderful communities off of the lake or man made water fronts. Kingwood & Humble provide homes off the water, also Cypress has a community surrounded by water that gives you the option of having a deck in your back yard. You just gotta do your research to figure in regards to your preference.
    2. Hot Summers - BIG FACTS/ It's HOT! Get you a home with a pool or a neighborhood pool.
    1. Amber Alerts - Facts/ They damn near go off daily but its informative & helpful.

    I have a question. I currently live in the DMV area on the East Coast. I’m trying to relocate my family to somewhere new and they want to move down south - Texas or GA. How is the racism down there? Have you both experienced anything crazy? I hate that I have to even ask this question, but it’s just the climate we, as Black people, live in. I’m terrified to move down South because of the history and our present experience in this country.

    • @HanginWithTheYoungs
      @HanginWithTheYoungs  3 роки тому +6

      Your feelings are valid. It’s a crazy bold time right now with social justice issues and racism. We haven’t dealt with any overt racism here, not to say it doesn’t exist. Our community is really diverse. I will say that we were surprised (in a good way) at how many black people live in Houston. We try not to live in fear but we do tread very carefully with our whereabouts. Pray about it and step out on faith wherever you feel led 🙏🏽

    I moved to Texas from Chicago on December 1st, with all intentions on staying in Dallas. Dallas was Great! I stayed for 2 months. I loved it! However, I couldn’t obtain employment in my career field, so I applied to hospitals in surrounding cities in Texas and a hospital in Houston hired me. I moved here February 1st and immediately realized that it was a huge mistake!! I HATE IT! I’ve experienced lots of prejudice and racism, they make it clear that they do not want people with Illinois plates (car) here in Houston! I’ve never experienced anything like this before and I’m considering moving back to Chicago. Period.

    Ahhh y’all trippin! Cmonnn going in on my hometown like this. Listen if people don’t move here bc they have concerns about bugs, traffic, amber alerts or lots of land that would be foolish. Plus from living in a handful of large cities I can tell you, you will experience a little bit of all this most places you go depending on where you stay and what season it is. Especially if you in a big city. But for me, my experience is different living in the loop. I don’t deal w/ traffic bc everything is right here where I need it! I don’t ever get on the freeway. Bugs? I mean…they in the grass lol Amber alerts…I mean it’s a random text at this point. The only reason w/ some weight that I would advise against is if you can’t handle heat or hate it then you will have a hard time BUT even still that is what the indoors is for. Climate is the toughest thing about living in the H. That’s it. Traffic is can be tough but that’s certain times a day that’s if you absolutely have to deal w/ the freeways. I don’t.
